FIRST VELYS ROBOTIC KNEE REPLACEMENT IN MELBOURNE
MR. Zayontz performs first VELYS robotic assisted knee replacement in Melbourne
On the 17 June 2026, Mr. Zayontz performed the first VELYS robotic assisted knee replacement in Melbourne at Cabrini Hospital. This robotic system is the latest design using the most up to date technology which actually allows the technique to be modified accoording to your surgeon who chooses based on your specific knee. It assess the tension in your ligaments to allow for the best sizing and alignment of the prosthesis tilored to your knee.
Studies using this precise technique have demostrated quicker recovery and far less pain initially. (All knee rplacements are associated with significant post operative pain, even ones done with this robotic technology).
