Minimally invasive, robotic-enabled knee replacement
A knee replacement meant for an active life on the move.
Trevor is back to lifting, squatting, and living life after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with Dr. Vasili Karas. After knee replacement surgery and dedicated rehab, Trevor was able to rebuild strength, improve mobility, and return to the gym with confidence. This is what recovery can look like with the right surgical care and commitment to physical therapy— getting back to the activities that matter most.

Total knee replacement is among the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures in the United States, yet patient satisfaction, especially in those who lead highly active lives, has historically been difficult to achieve consistently — largely because every knee is different, and a successful outcome depends on far more than simply placing an implant. The ligaments that surround and stabilize the knee joint vary from patient to patient in their tension, elasticity, and behavior through the arc of motion, and a knee replacement procedure that does not account for those individual characteristics will rarely feel or perform the way a patient hopes. Dr. Karas's minimally invasive robotic-enabled technique addresses this by placing ligament balance at the center of the surgical plan. Throughout the procedure, the robotic platform provides continuous, real-time data that allows Dr. Karas to optimize the position of each implant in response to the specific behavior of that patient's ligaments — achieving a balance that is stable enough to support high-level physical activity and the full range of motion needed for everyday life. The result is a knee replacement that does not just function — it performs, responding naturally to the demands of the activities that matter most to you.
