Dr. Tarandeep Singh Gill: The Visionary Behind FT-3D Knee Resurfacing
The orthopedic surgery sector is experiencing a paradigm shift. The days when the whole knee was replaced by a generic knee are long gone. The current trend is centered on joint restoration with utmost precision, preserving as much of the original bone as possible in the process. Dr. Tarandeep Singh Gill, the brain behind FT-3D Knee Resurfacing, is leading the revolution in India. “Our aim is not to replace the knee but to restore it as naturally as possible. Preserving healthy bone and ligaments is what makes a true difference in the future of knee replacement,” says Dr. Tarandeep Singh Gill.
From Germany to India: A Journey of Learning and Innovation Dr. Gill’s educational background is the best of Indian medical education combined with the best of European orthopedic expertise. After completing his MBBS from Rajiv Gandhi University and MS from Pune, he completed fellowships in Germany from St. Josef Hospital, Paderborn, and ARCUS Sportklinik, Pforzheim,Germany.
His experience in Germany has given him expertise in knee surgery, where he has gained extensive knowledge in joint preservation and precision surgery. This experience has later enabled him to create the RoboLens platform, which uses the accuracy of robotics with the assistance of AI to enhance surgical success.
With more than 15 years of experience and more than 1,000 successful joint surgeries, Dr. Gill is one of the most celebrated orthopedic surgeons in India, acclaimed for his expertise in medical knowledge combined with innovative technology.
“Technology such as RoboLens enables us to plan every surgery in advance with an unprecedented level of accuracy. It instills confidence in both the surgeon and the patient regarding the result,” he says.
FT-3D Knee Resurfacing: Precision and Personalization Unlike conventional total knee replacement surgery, FT-3D targets only the affected areas of the knee. Dr. Gill uses RoboLens technology to develop a 3D virtual model of every patient’s knee from a CT scan, which enables him to plan the surgery in advance.
“Every knee is different. With 3D planning, we tailor the surgery to the patient rather than vice versa,” Dr. Gill stresses.
The “No Drill, No Rod” Advantage In traditional knee replacement surgery, drilling is necessary for the insertion of alignment rods. FT-3D does not require drilling, and this has several advantages: • Fewer complications: Less risk of fat embolism • Minimal blood loss: No damage to the femur • Less pain and rapid recovery: No need to drill the deep bone • This technology also shortens the surgery time to only 15-25 minutes per knee.
“By not drilling, we are able to reduce trauma to the body. That’s why patients have less pain and are able to recover faster,” explains Dr. Gill.
Fast Recovery: From Operation to Daily Life Quickly • Walking in hours: Patients can walk with assistance within 3-4 hours • Stitch-less technique: Dissolvable stitches reduce discomfort • Return to routine in 15-20 days “Early mobility is the key to recovery. When patients start walking within hours, it helps in healing both physically and mentally,” he adds.
High-Quality Implants: The “Gold on Gold” Advantage Dr. Gill prefers Titanium Niobium Nitride (TiNbN) coated implants, also known as “Gold on Gold” implants. They are hypoallergenic, very durable, and can last for up to 30 years.
“Implant quality is a huge factor in the success of the implant itself. Our goal is to ensure that it is durable while also being comfortable and compatible with the body,” Dr. Gill explains.
Redefining Knee Care in India With FT-3D Knee Resurfacing and the RoboLens platform, Dr. Gill has been able to make knee surgery a precise and patient-friendly process. His method of surgery focuses on bone and ligament preservation, which is further enhanced by AI planning to provide a natural range of motion.
“Today, we are looking at a future where knee surgery will no longer feel like surgery but rather the restoration of life. Patients should be able to move freely without fear or pain,” concludes Dr. Gill.
