Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Miami Knee™ utilizes advanced AI-driven technology as a core part of its process.

In-office X-rays are integrated into AI-driven planning software, where your knee is digitally mapped with precise measurements of alignment, rotation, joint balance, and anatomical geometry. This technology helps engineer patient-specific cutting guides and supports accurate implant selection and positioning before surgery begins.

AI-driven planning tailored to your anatomy, personalized implants selected specifically for you, and a minimally invasive approach focused on restoring natural movement.

Our goal is precise balance. Every bone cut is carefully planned to optimize alignment and joint stability, helping prevent looseness or instability after surgery. Patient-specific guides enhance accuracy during the procedure, supporting precise implant placement and a more natural-feeling knee.

The overall medical risks of knee replacement are generally similar regardless of approach. The difference lies in technique. The Miami Knee™ uses patient-specific planning and customized guides to minimize soft tissue and bone disruption and preserve natural anatomy when appropriate. The less invasive procedure may reduce blood loss and reduce the risk of infection overall. 

In most cases, insurance coverage is comparable to traditional knee replacement. Our team verifies your benefits in advance and ensures transparency regarding costs.

Terminology may vary, but what matters most is the surgeon’s experience with muscle preservation and consistent outcomes. We encourage patients to ask detailed questions about approach and recovery expectations.

Candidacy depends on your anatomy, health, and lifestyle goals. During your consultation, we evaluate imaging and medical history to determine the most appropriate personalized plan.

Timing varies based on recovery and overall health. Some patients stage procedures weeks or months apart, while others may qualify for same-day bilateral surgery. Safety and recovery remain the priority.

No, just like standard knee replacements, we use layered closure techniques to minimize scarring. Incisions are designed to heal cleanly and discreetly.

By restoring the native balance of your knee this approach provides a more natural feeling knee replacement. Precision, implant positioning, and coordinated rehabilitation all contribute to recovery.

Utilization of personal information on Artificial Intelligence platforms is always stored in compliance with HIPAA.

Most patients can expect surgery approximately four weeks after their consultation. This timeframe includes creating your patient-specific surgical guides, with detailed X-rays taken during your initial visit to begin planning.

No, only standard in-office x-rays are required for analysis. No additional imaging or outside testing is necessary. 

With pre-planned cutting and implant sizing completed prior to surgery, operative time may be reduced. This streamlined approach helps improve efficiency in the operating room.

No. AI technology is used preoperatively to create patient-specific surgical guides. Robotic assistance is not used during the procedure.
