Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Mumbai launches third da Vinci robotic surgical system – ET HealthWorld

Mumbai: Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Mumbai announced the launch of its third da Vinci robotic surgical system, making it the first and only hospital in the country with three da Vinci robots. The hospital today completed over 4500 robotic-assisted surgeries across specialities including adult and paediatric urology, gynaecology, ENT and bariatric surgery as well as in cancer surgeries for uro-oncology, gynaecological, head and neck, lung and oesophageal, and colorectal cancers.

Dr Yuvaraja TB, Head, Robotic Surgery and Consultant, Uro-Oncology, KDAH said, “Robotic surgery represents the next era of surgical innovation with many advantages over traditional open surgery. It makes difficult urological surgeries easier and safer for the patient with more precise surgery, less blood loss reducing the need for blood transfusions, less risk of infection, quicker recovery, and a shortened hospital stay. Our vast experience in robotic surgery allows us to treat patients where traditional surgery is not an option and also in complex cases by innovating novel techniques that let us operate in very small spaces with great precision. It is a matter of great pride that our innovative work has been accepted and published in many national and international medical journals.”

Dr Santosh Shetty, Executive Director and CEO, KDAH said, “A factor that has contributed to the growing number of robotic surgeries is that these are cost-effective with a nominal price differential over conventional surgery. Health insurance has also recognised the advantages of robotic surgeries and now covers these procedures, which is a boon to patients.”
