The hospital has claimed Kunar’s surgery is North India’s first robotic joint replacement surgery. “Robot-assisted joint replacement surgery offers the patient a huge advantage of immediate recovery, same or next day discharge and minimal blood loss,” said doctor Ashok Rajgopal. The knee surgery, which happened on Thursday, helps the surgeon to fix only the damaged joint to absolute perfection, saving all the other normal structures of the joint. “I have been living with this painful knee for close to five years since I was always fearful of surgery. Kunar has finally got rid of pain in her left knee for many years, due to surgery carried out by Orthopedic Surgeons at Fortis Bone and Joint Institute in Gurgaon.
