Innovative Robotic Surgery Saves the Day for Kidney Transplant Patient from Oman

Dr. Mohan Keshavamurthy Sep 04, 2024

At Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bengaluru, we are constantly pushing the boundaries of medical innovation to provide our patients with the best possible care. One such remarkable instance involved a complex robot-assisted surgery to address a narrowed ureter in a transplanted kidney, performed by our expert team led by Dr. Mohan Keshavamurthy, Senior Director of Urology.

 

The Patient's Journey

The patient, a 51-year-old woman from Oman, had undergone an unrelated kidney transplant in Pakistan nearly a year ago. Unfortunately, her recovery was complicated by a broken piece of ureteral stent, leading to persistent urinary tract infections and ureteral obstruction. Despite multiple interventions, the issue remained unresolved, severely impacting her quality of life.

 

The Need for Innovation

Upon evaluating her case, our medical team at Fortis Bannerghatta recognized the need for an innovative approach to effectively address the complication. Dr. Sreeharsha Harinatha, Additional Director of Urology at Fortis Hospitals Bengaluru, described the situation as necessitating a Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Transplant Kidney Pelvic-Cystostomy.

The Procedure

This advanced procedure involved reconnecting the ureteric orifice to the bladder using robotic assistance, ensuring proper urine flow and restoring kidney function. The precision and control offered by the robotic system allowed our surgeons to perform the surgery with minimal invasiveness and maximum accuracy.

Success Amidst Challenges

Dr. Mohan Keshavamurthy emphasized the success of the surgery despite its inherent challenges. He highlighted that such innovative techniques are pivotal in enhancing kidney transplant procedures and effectively addressing complications that arise post-transplant.

"Our ability to leverage advanced robotic systems in such complex cases underscores our commitment to providing cutting-edge medical care," said Dr. Keshavamurthy. "This surgery not only resolved a persistent issue for our patient but also showcased the potential of robotic-assisted procedures in urology."

"This achievement solidifies Fortis Hospital Bannerghatta’s position as a pioneer in healthcare innovation. We are committed to continually advancing our capabilities to deliver the best possible care for our patients."
