Participation in the 4th What's New in Robotics Surgery… Hip Surgery Robot Unveiled
• From Knee Replacement to Hip Replacement… Expansion of Orthopedic Surgical Robot Platform • Proven Precision and Safety Based on Over 30,000 Accumulated Surgeries Medical robotics company CUREXO (CEO Jaejun Lee) announced its participation in the 4th Robotic Joint Replacement Surgery Symposium, held on the 31st at Dragon City in Yongsan, Seoul.The symposium, hosted by the Korean Society for Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS Korea), consisted of five sessions and 19 lectures by leading experts in orthopedic surgery. It served as a platform to share trends and clinical experiences in robotic joint replacement surgery both domestically and internationally.CUREXO showcased its hip surgery robot, CUVIS-Joint THA, at the event, conducting demonstrations for medical professionals. Sanghoon Lee, Director of CUREXO's Technology Research Center, participated as a presenter in Session 1, where he introduced the company's flagship products, clinical data, and future technology development plans. Director Lee stated, "CUREXO has expanded the application of its robotic platform from knee replacement to now include hip replacement surgery." He emphasized that "CUVIS-Joint has demonstrated its precision and safety with more than 30,000 surgeries performed globally." The CUVIS-Joint THA robot analyzes 3D anatomical data in detail to a personalized surgical plan. During surgery, its real-time tracking and automatic correction features minimize deviations from the surgical plan, allowing for precise implantation of the artificial joint. Currently, CUVIS-Joint is actively being adopted and utilized not only in major general hospitals in Korea but also in medical institutions in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, and other countries.
