The procedure was done at Capital Ortho’s surgery center using the Navio Surgical System, which helps with precision and accuracy. The robot provides intraoperative registration, planning and navigation.

Navio also helps surgeons build personalized surgical plans without the need for a preoperative computed tomography scan.

Capital Ortho is based in Flowood, Miss.
