First Arvis™ Knee Surgery in Europe
We’re thrilled to announce that on September 16th, Dr. Francesco Traverso of CDC Habilita – I Cedri performed the first ARVIS surgery in Europe. Dr. Traverso successfully carried out a total knee arthroplasty, implanting a Physica LMC with the support of Arvis™ Augmented Reality Surgical Guidance.
“I really enjoyed using ARVIS for the surgery. From the start, I found it easy to use and a cost efficient technology which can be especially helpful for less experienced surgeons or those performing a high volume of procedures.” stated Dr. Traverso, “Our scrub nurses also appreciated how quickly it integrates with standard instrumentation, without the need for bulky equipment.”
Arvis™, Enovis’ wearable and self-contained system, provides real-time, zero footprint surgical guidance. It received CE mark approval for hip and knee earlier this summer, with shoulder expected soon.
This surgery marks a major milestone for Enovis, underscoring our commitment to advancing orthopedic innovation and empowering surgeons worldwide with smart, enabling technologies that enhance precision without adding complexity.
Special thanks to Dr. Traverso and his team for pioneering this technology in Europe, and to our colleagues in Italy for their invaluable contribution to this success.
