Launches state-of-the-art Robotic Surgery Centre with introduction of ROSA Robotic Knee Joint Replacement System featuring real-time data, 3D modeling, and a personalized surgical approach for enhanced accuracy.
Dubai: Aster Hospital Mankhool has unveiled a groundbreaking Robotic Surgery Centre, introducing robotic knee surgery to elevate patient care. Ranked No. 4 in Newsweek’s 2025 list of World’s Best Hospitals in the UAE, the hospital becomes the first in the Aster network to offer this technology-driven advancement.
The centre features the ROSA® Robotic Knee Joint Replacement System, a next-generation assistant that works with surgeons from pre-operative planning to real-time procedure guidance. Robotic knee surgery improves implant positioning, reduces risks, and supports faster recovery compared to traditional methods.
Olympian and healthcare advocate Mary Kom officially inaugurated the facility, commending the hospital’s patient-first approach and investment in innovation.
As the global demand for knee replacements rises, robotic solutions are revolutionising outcomes. The ROSA® system uses CT scan data to create precise 3D models of a patient’s knee, enabling custom surgical strategies. By offering real-time feedback during surgery, it ensures personalised and highly accurate results.
Dr. Malathi Arshanapalai, Group Chief Medical Officer at Aster DM Healthcare, said, “With robotic-assisted surgery, we’re bringing the future of orthopaedics to the region—more precision, faster recovery, and better patient outcomes.”
Robotic knee surgery also benefits patients undergoing hip replacements, offering smaller incisions, minimal tissue disruption, and fewer complications. Enhanced stability and proper alignment lead to longer-lasting implants and improved mobility.
Dr. Ranjith Narayan, Specialist Orthopaedics, noted, “ROSA® allows for a personalised approach based on each patient’s unique anatomy. It significantly improves function, shortens recovery, and raises care standards.”
With this launch, Aster Hospital Mankhool reinforces its commitment to world-class care by making advanced orthopaedic solutions more accessible and effective.
