Chris Ives, 74, was one of the first patients at UH Sussex Trust to get robotic-assisted surgery.
By Mark Norman & Flaminia LuckA man from Brighton said he feels "delighted, privileged, and lucky" to have undergone robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery.
Prior to the surgery on his left knee, Mr Ives said he kept putting off getting treatment despite suffering from restricted movement. "But I put it off and put it off. It got to the point where I was struggling with simple day to day things like walking and was having to take regular breaks." Using the robotic arm, surgeons are able to make far more precise bone cuts, preventing damage to soft tissues in the knee joint, and to liaise more closely with clinical colleagues in the operating room.He said: "We're able to put in the same implant that we've been using for many years here. We're just able to put them in now with a lot more information and detail.
