Perry Hospital Performs First Robotic Assisted Orthopedic Case
Thursday, September 3rd, 2020
The first Robotic Assisted Total Knee Replacement in Houston County was performed today at Perry Hospital. This new technology, the ROSA® Knee System, assists the orthopedic surgeon by essentially allowing the surgeons to conduct a virtual knee replacement before any cuts are made, ensuring the implant will be positioned correctly while in surgery. The surgery was performed by Dr. Brian Ludwig with anesthesia support from Dr. JD Hall. The ROSA® Knee System is available at Perry Hospital and Houston Medical Center.
A special thanks to these physicians and all our staff involved in this successful first case.
