A new strategically designed orthopedic table, The Athello, is leading to less invasive surgery for patients and a speedy recovery.
Here are five facts:
1. Timothy J. Henderson, MD, helped created The Athello. Dr. Henderson practices at Gotham City Orthopedic in New York City and New Jersey.
2. The device eliminates the need to cut and tear tendons and muscle during a hip replacement.
3. The Athello readily places the hip into the socket with the help of the structured leg rotation and precise placement.
4. With The Athello, the hip replacement takes only one hour and 15 minutes.
5. The device is transportable, safe and easy-to-use. It can be stored in equipment rooms and is transportable in most SUVs and wagons.
