Secunderabad: Doctors of Yashoda hospital informed about three robotic kidney transplants that were performed at the institute recently. The complicated kidney transplant surgeries necessitated the use of advanced methods and equipment, which was then successful by this robotic transplant. These surgeries were done during the month of October.
Speaking about the procedures on Wednesday, Dr GS Rao Managing Director of Yashoda Hospitals said, “Kidney transplantation is the standard of care for patients with the end-stage renal disease.
While open surgery is being performed for over six decades, robotic surgery has been recently introduced for the recipient undergoing kidney transplantation. First Robo assisted kidney surgery was done in France and at present in our country only in few centers like Delhi, Ahmedabad and Cochin the surgeries are being performed. This is the first one for the Telugu States.”
“Unlike regular surgeries for kidney transplantation where the patient receives the kidney through a larger muscle cutting process, robotic surgery is conducted with only a small incision and involves no cutting of muscle.
The Da Vinci Robo system is used in a specific way to ensure vibration-free movement of the instrument thus causing no damage to the graft kidney. This ensures minimal chances of infection and faster recovery of the patient and the donor,” he said.
Adding to nephrologists Dr Urmila Anandh and Dr Suresh Babu said that it has been a privilege for them to perform Telugu State’s first robotic kidney transplant. “We are thrilled the patient and the donor are doing well and the operation was a success,” said Dr Babu. The doctors said that the particular robot has been in use previously for other surgeries but was used for the first time for a kidney transplant.
