VELYS™ is a robotic-assisted surgical technology that supports the surgeon during knee replacement procedures by providing real-time anatomical and alignment data.

It assists in:

1. Patient-specific surgical planning
2. Knee alignment assessment
3. Soft-tissue balance evaluation
4. Precise, surgeon-controlled bone preparation
5. Accurate implant positioning
6. Intraoperative range-of-motion assessment

The robotic system does not perform surgery independently. The entire procedure is performed and controlled by the surgeon, with robotic assistance enhancing precision and planning.

Outcomes, recovery and suitability vary depending on patient age, bone quality, medical condition and rehabilitation response.

Patients may consult for:

1. Advanced knee osteoarthritis
2. Chronic knee pain and stiffness
3. Difficulty walking, climbing stairs or daily activities
4. Bow-legged or knock-kneed deformity
5. Rheumatoid arthritis affecting joints
6. Post-traumatic arthritis
7. Failed previous knee surgery
8. Pain after prior knee replacement
9. Primary or revision knee replacement
10. Second opinion for joint replacement

Surgery is recommended only after clinical evaluation, imaging studies and assessment of non-surgical treatment options.
