Comprehensive Orthopaedic Care
We provide state-of-the-art digital radiology, ultrasound, physical therapy, and pain management services within our office. We also offer cortisone, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and visco-supplementation injections, which promote tissue healing and are alternatives to surgery. Our focus is on treating every patient as an individual, not just an individual injury.

Joint Replacement
Leading the way, we started the outpatient joint replacement center at Danbury Hospital; we help our patients decide if this progressive approach meets their individual needs. According to recent data, we have exceptionally low complication rates that are well below national standards and unequaled in the area.

Pain Management
We also have expertise in regenerative medicine techniques, including stem cell therapy (SCT) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections. These leading-edge technologies involve injecting damaged tissue with a patient’s own stem cells or plasma. While the new cells adapt to their environment, they repair damage in the process. Many of these techniques offer relief for patients with chronic pain who have not responded to traditional treatment. Our goal is to return our patients to their everyday activities quickly, decrease their need for medication, and improve their overall quality of life.

MAKOplasty Robotic Arm Partial Knee Resurfacing
MAKOplasty is designed to relieve the pain caused by joint degeneration due to osteoarthritis (OA). By selectively targeting only the diseased part of your knee, your surgeon can spare healthy bone, tissue, and ligaments. Other benefits may include a smaller incision, shorter hospital stay, less pain, reduced blood loss, less scarring, and a more rapid recovery.
MAKOplasty is indicated for patients suffering from osteoarthritis in one or two compartments of their knee. A total knee replacement is sometimes necessary if your surgeon discovers during surgery that your knee has more damage than originally seen in the pre-operative X-rays and CT scan.

MAKOplasty – A Less Invasive Procedure
By preserving healthy bone, tissue, and ligaments, along with more accurate implant positioning, you can expect a more natural feeling knee. Since healthy bone is preserved, patients who undergo MAKOplasty partial knee procedures may still be candidates for a total knee replacement procedure later in life if necessary. Your surgeon should discuss the specific risks associated with MAKOplasty and other treatment options with you.
Clinical Data Highlights
Comparing American Knee Society Scores, a common measure of knee functionality, the study also found MAKOplasty patients had increased post-operative functionality at three months post-surgery.

Does the robotic arm system actually perform the surgery?
The robotic arm does not perform the surgery, nor can it make decisions on its own or move in any way without the surgeon guiding it. During surgery, RIO® provides the surgeon with real-time visual, tactile, and auditory feedback to facilitate optimal joint resurfacing and implant positioning. It is this optimal placement that can result in more natural knee motion following surgery.

Understanding Degenerative Joint Disease
Degenerative joint disease (DJD) can cause a loss of cartilage, resulting in bone-on-bone contact that may result in pain, swelling, and stiffness. There are different types of DJD that may cause hip pain.
What is degenerative joint disease (DJD) of the hip?
● Osteoarthritis (OA): also called “wear-and-tear arthritis,” in which the cartilage wears down over time.
● Post-traumatic arthritis: which results from a severe fracture or dislocation of the hip.
● Rheumatoid arthritis (RA): an inflammatory arthritis of the joints.
● Avascular necrosis (AVN): a condition where the “ball” or femoral head has lost a healthy supply of blood flow, causing the bone to die and the femoral head to become misshapen.
● Hip dysplasia: a developmental deformation or misalignment of the hip joint.
If you are one of the millions of Americans suffering with hip pain from degenerative joint disease, you may be a candidate for MAKOplasty® total hip arthroplasty, also known as MAKOplasty® total hip replacement.

How does MAKOplasty® work?
What are the potential benefits of MAKOplasty® robotic arm-assisted hip replacement?
The RIO® System software uses patient-specific anatomic information from a pre-operative CT scan to enable the accurate position of the implants so that the likelihood of implant or bony impingement is reduced as well as a possible reduction in the rate of dislocation.
The RIO® System allows the surgeon to know and control the position of the cup and stem in addition to the final correction of leg length accomplished by the hip replacement before closing the incision.
Who is a good candidate for the MAKOplasty® total hip procedure?
● Pain while putting weight on the affected joints.
● Limping to lessen the weight-bearing pressure on the hip.
● Hip pain or stiffness during walking or other impact activities.
● Failure to respond to non-surgical treatments or pain medication.
● Be sure to discuss all treatment options with your doctor.
