Is Robotic Surgery For A Hip Replacement Advisable?
Need information about robotic surgery for a hip replacement for a girl 44 years of age who was diagnosed with osteo-petrosis (brittle bones) since she was approximately 6 months old. She is presently having a problem finding a doctor who will even do the operation.

As she has brittle bone disease, no body wishes to touch because anything may happen during surgery. No one really wants to burn their hands. Really difficult. First the patient should be ready for the worst complications, then any one may unwillingly touch her. Better manage without surgery. With wheelchair etc
