Full Knee Replacement Options, Robotic Assisted or Conventional, Which did you choose and Why?

Dammit.. I read this and thought they had new Bionic Knees

@Mi-Troll... get the Assisted procedure if you can. Should go faster and easier.

I had mine done with robotic assist and feel great. I am surprised you were offered a choice. After we received our first robotic device at the hospital I worked for, all our total knees were robotic assisted. The ortho docs wouldn't do it any other way. It may be that one ortho doc still does manual surgery instead of going for training on using the robot.

Yup, visions of Cybermen crossing my thoughts.
