Sometimes, patients who have undergone knee replacement surgery may feel anxious about returning to high-impact sports. This fear usually stems from concerns about damaging the knee implant. However, with the Total Knee Replacement (TKR) procedure now available at RS Mandaya Royal Puri using the premium OXINIUM knee implant, patients no longer need to worry.

Advantages of OXINIUM Knee Implants: Suitable for High-Impact Sports
In a TKR procedure, the damaged surfaces of the knee joint are replaced with an artificial joint implant. At RS Mandaya Royal Puri, experienced orthopedic specialists use the robotic-assisted CORI navigation system to precisely place the OXINIUM implant in the patient’s knee.
So, what are the benefits of the OXINIUM knee implant? Here’s what you need to know:
1. Exceptional Durability for Decades
The OXINIUM knee implant available at RS Mandaya Royal Puri offers long-term durability, lasting between 25 to 40 years. As a premium implant from Smith+Nephew, this material is designed to significantly reduce wear and tear and is proven to be up to 9 times more durable than conventional implant materials. OXINIUM is an ideal choice for patients seeking long-lasting knee replacement results.
2. Wear-Resistant and Minimizes Friction
Most knee implants consist of metal and plastic components that rub against each other during movement, making them prone to wear. OXINIUM implants, however, feature a ceramic coating that provides added protection against friction.
This advanced technology makes OXINIUM more wear-resistant than other types of implants, effectively extending the lifespan of the artificial joint.
3. Maintains Optimal Range of Motion
A key advantage of the OXINIUM implant is its ability to withstand shear forces and repetitive rotational movements without compromising knee flexibility.
With a maintained range of motion, patients can return to normal activities after recovery, making OXINIUM an excellent solution for an active lifestyle post-surgery.
4. Reduces Risk of Knee Revision Surgery
Knee revision surgery is often performed to replace a damaged, loose, or infected implant. OXINIUM implants have been shown to lower the risk of complications such as infection or aseptic loosening, especially when compared to cobalt-chrome implants of similar design. With its high durability, OXINIUM minimizes the need for additional surgery.
5. Biocompatible
Unlike cobalt-chrome implants that contain nickel (a substance that may cause allergic reactions in some patients), OXINIUM is highly biocompatible. This makes it the best choice for patients with metal allergies.
With OXINIUM implants, patients can undergo total knee replacement without allergy concerns and return to daily activities comfortably.
Advantages of CORI Robotic Knee Surgery at RS Mandaya Royal Puri
The placement of premium OXINIUM knee implants at RS Mandaya Royal Puri is supported by the advanced CORI robotic knee system. This robotic navigation technology assists orthopedic specialists with hip and knee subspecialties to perform implant placement with greater precision.
Here are some key benefits of the CORI robotic system in knee replacement procedures:
1. Performs Both UKA and TKR Surgeries
The CORI knee navigation robot is designed to perform both Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA) and Total Knee Replacement (TKR).
This technology allows doctors to tailor the surgical method according to each patient’s condition, whether it involves partial or total knee replacement.
2. Only FDA-Approved Knee Robot for Revision Surgery
CORI is the only robotic knee system approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for revision surgery.
This procedure is performed to replace a previously implanted joint that is no longer functioning optimally and is typically more complex than regular knee surgery. With CORI, the revision procedure is made safer and more precise.
3. No CT Scan or MRI Required Before Surgery
Unlike other technologies, CORI does not require patients to undergo a CT scan or MRI before surgery. Instead, it maps the knee’s anatomy in real time during the procedure.
This data is then used to create a 3D model of the patient’s knee, guide accurate implant placement, and balance ligaments based on clinical needs.
4. Compatible with Long-Lasting OXINIUM Implants
CORI is compatible with OXINIUM implants by Smith+Nephew, a breakthrough material designed to significantly reduce wear. OXINIUM has been proven to be up to 9 times more durable than standard materials and can last for decades in laboratory tests. This makes it the ideal long-term solution for knee replacement patients.
5. Globally Trusted and Scientifically Supported
The CORI robotic system is used in over 30 countries and has been featured in hundreds of international medical journals.
This global presence is a testament to the system’s reliability and effectiveness in supporting modern, low-risk knee replacement surgeries.
