Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital has further solidified its position as a leading orthopedic center in Indonesia after being officially appointed by global medical device company Smith+Nephew as the first and only CORI Robotic Knee Reference Center in the country.
The hospital has also successfully performed 100 knee surgeries using the CORI robotic navigation system.
“Mandaya has completed 100 robotic knee surgeries in just 10 months and is the first to perform the partial knee replacement (UKA) method with robotic assistance,” said Erwin Suyanto, Public Relations of Mandaya Hospital Group.
“Some patients not only walk again, but have also returned to engaging in high-impact sports such as tennis,” he added.
The inauguration of Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital as the CORI Robotic Knee Reference Center was held on Saturday (August 9), marked by a ceremony and a talk show titled “Differences Between Conventional Knee Replacement Surgery and Robotic Navigation Surgery.”
The event was attended by Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital’s internationally certified Hip & Knee orthopedic subspecialists, including Dr. Paulus Ronald Hibono, Sp.OT(K) Hip & Knee, Dr. William Chandra, Sp.OT(K) Hip & Knee, Dr. Rahendra Pratama, Sp.OT(K) Hip & Knee, and Dr. Ardi Setiawan, Sp.OT(K) Hip & Knee.
Also present was an international guest speaker, Associate Professor Pruk Chaiyakit, MD, a highly experienced orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee procedures.
As a CORI Robotic Knee Reference Center, Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital integrates the precision of the CORI robotic navigation system with the revolutionary OXINIUM knee implant material. This combination enables more accurate knee replacement surgeries, minimizes risks, and ensures faster, more comfortable recovery for patients.
OXINIUM: Durable Knee Implants for a Better Quality of Life
OXINIUM is Smith+Nephew’s exclusive knee implant material, engineered for long-term durability and comfort. Made from zirconium metal that has undergone a special oxidation process, OXINIUM offers proven structural strength—up to nine times stronger than conventional materials.
One of the unique advantages of the CORI robot at Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital is its compatibility with OXINIUM implants, which can last up to 30 years. Moreover, OXINIUM surfaces remain 160 times smoother even after 10 million impact cycles compared to standard implants, significantly reducing joint wear and postoperative discomfort. Its high biocompatibility also lowers the risk of allergic reactions, making it an ideal choice for Asian patients.
The CORI robotic system is the only knee surgery robot in the world compatible with OXINIUM implants. Using real-time 3D knee anatomy mapping, surgeons can precisely customize implant placement without requiring a preoperative CT scan.
Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital: Indonesia’s Reference Center for CORI and OXINIUM Technology
The appointment of Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital as a CORI Robotic Knee Reference Center is not only due to its cutting-edge technology, but also its team of highly skilled doctors and comprehensive supporting facilities.
For example, Dr. Paulus is the only representative from Indonesia to attend the CORI Robotic Summit in Germany. He has also completed CORI robotic workshops in Thailand. Similarly, Dr. William has undergone advanced knee surgery training at the Lyon School of Knee Surgery in France.
With the advanced CORI robotic system, the superior durability of OXINIUM implants, and an internationally certified team of Hip & Knee orthopedic subspecialists, Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital offers a more personalized, precise, and sustainable knee replacement solution—bringing new hope to patients who wish to return to an active, pain-free life.
