Mira-Bhayandar News: Wockhardt Hospitals In Mira Road Launches MISSO Robotic System For Advanced Knee Replacement Surgeries

Palghar, Maharashtra: Wockhardt Hospitals in Mira Road, has ushered in a new era of orthopaedic excellence with the launch of its state-of-the-art MISSO Robotic System for knee replacement surgeries.

The cutting-edge technology was formally unveiled during a grand event held at the hospital’s 14th-floor auditorium on July 21, in the presence of top leadership and renowned orthopaedic specialists.

The launch was led by Ms. Zahabiya Khorakiwala, Managing Director of Wockhardt Hospitals, alongside Dr. Parag Rindani, Group CEO, and Dr. Sushil Kumar, Centre Head of the Mira Road facility.

The event also featured expert insights from the hospital’s orthopaedic team, including Dr. Saikat Jena, Dr. Supreet Bajwa, Dr. Ronak V. Shah, and Dr. Manojkumar Gaddikeri, who collectively emphasized the clinical advantages and transformative impact of robotic-assisted joint surgeries.

The MISSO Robotic System places Wockhardt Hospitals at the forefront of precision-based orthopaedic care. With advanced 3D visualization and real-time intraoperative feedback, the system allows surgeons to customise procedures according to a patient’s unique anatomy. This results in highly accurate bone cuts and optimal implant alignment, which are critical to long-term surgical success.

Among the key benefits of robotic knee replacement are minimal tissue damage, reduced intar operative blood loss, and significantly less post-operative pain. Patients also benefit from shorter hospital stays, quicker rehabilitation, and enhanced implant longevity. Together, these outcomes contribute to improved mobility, faster return to daily routines, and greater patient satisfaction.

Speaking at the launch, Khorakiwala said, “At Wockhardt, we are committed to bringing global standards and innovations to our patients. The successful introduction of robotic knee replacement in Mira Road is a major step toward delivering precise, minimally invasive surgical care that enhances quality of life.”

Dr. Rindani echoed this sentiment, highlighting the broader impact of the technology on orthopaedic care. “Robotic systems are redefining how surgeries are performed, offering unmatched precision and improving recovery timelines. This initiative reflects our promise to provide advanced, evidence-based care to the communities we serve,” he said.

Adding to this, Dr. Kumar noted that the robotic system has already demonstrated strong results. “Our patients now have access to world-class surgical technology that ensures better outcomes, less pain, and a much smoother recovery journey,” he said.

The launch of the MISSO Robotic System represents a significant milestone for the Mira-Bhayandar region, offering residents access to advanced orthopaedic care previously limited to major metropolitan centres.

With the integration of robotics into joint replacement surgery, Wockhardt Hospitals, Mira Road, has firmly positioned itself as a leader in patient-centric, technologically advanced healthcare.
