Otis Med Total Knee Replacement - Dr. Marotta

This is an innovative, medical and technological revelation which has provided a way for patients to receive a custom-fit individualized prosthesis based on their own unique anatomy.  An MRI of the knee is used to create instrumentation that aligns the appropriate depth, rotation, and angulation of the prosthetic joint.  Patients tend to have less blood loss during surgery, shorter anesthesia, shorter hospital stays, less pain, and faster rehabilitations than was previously achieved with traditional knee replacement techniques.  

For more information please contact the office or see the Otis Med Knee Replacement Information Website.
