The procedure was completed Nov. 23 at Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare in Clinton, Mo. TSolution One uses TPLAN for presurgical planning and TCAT, a robot that aids with cutting and bone and cartilage removal.

“With the TSolution One system, not only is each surgery planned in advance, but a robot cuts the bone in the manner I specify, ensuring unmatched, precise placement of the implant,” Dr. Womack said in the release.

Think Surgical’s second iteration of TSolution One also has debuted in Ohio and Texas.
