Robotic Kidney Transplants Conducted at Fortis
By
Tricitynews
Jalandhar 29th September:- In a boon to kidney
failure patients, robotic kidney transplants have now become a reality and are
being successfully conducted at Fortis Hospital in Mohali. Unlike the
traditional kidney transplantation where the patient receives a kidney through
a large muscle cutting incision (approximately 25-30 cms), in Robotic kidney
transplant, the kidney is placed through a small 5 centimeters incision, in the
belly button, without cutting any muscle. As a result of this the blood loss is
significantly less, chances of infection are minimal, there is hardly any pain
and the patient’s recovery is quick, informed Dr Priyadarshi Ranjan,
Senior Consultant, Urology, Robotics and Kidney Transplantation, Fortis Mohali.
It’s
been a significant revolutionary medical advancement in the lives of the
patients, which is very helpful for their recovery. Now Chandigarh becomes the
third city in the country and tenth center in the world to regularly offer this
highly sophisticated surgery.
Till
date, twelve patients have received a successful kidney transplant through this
technique at Fortis Mohali. The latest surgery was done on 27th September at
Fortis Hospital, Mohali. Achieving this extraordinary surgical feat places Dr
Ranjan in top ten surgeons in the world, who are capable of doing a successful
Robotic Kidney Transplantation. Dr
Priyadarshi Ranjan said that till date we have done twelve Robotic Kidney
Transplants, and all of our patients are living a healthy life with a
functioning kidney now.
Unlike
the traditional regular 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
robot is used in a specific way to ensure tremor 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.
Sirsa
resident Boti Devi(55) donated the organ to her son Sandeep (23) after he was
admitted to the hospital with renal failure. Dr Priyadarshi Ranjan said that the
family was apprised about the latest robotic technology and its benefits,
including lesser risk of infection, lesser pain, and a faster return to
normalcy. Higher magnification and finer scaled miniaturized movements of
robotic instruments ensured greater precision in this surgery.
Dr
Priyadarshi Ranjan said that it has been a privilege to perform Punjab’s first
robotic kidney transplant at the hospital considering it is the first of its kind
in the stat. He informed that the team worked together and we are thrilled that
all the patients and donors are doing well and all the operations have been a
great success.
These
patients were on dialysis for a varying duration. He said that the robotic surgery
involved much lesser pain. He was initially reluctant, but the doctors
convinced him about the benefits. He is happy that he went ahead with it.
Narrating her experience, Beena said she decided to give her kidney for her
husband’s normal life,” who added that she did her own
research about the surgery before going ahead with it.
Patients
suffering from chronic renal diseases tend to prefer renal replacement compared
to dialysis for various reasons. Only three centers in India including Fortis
Mohali have been regularly and actively performing these transplants as of now,
with excellent results.
Robotic
kidney transplant is going to be the future in next decade. The incidence of
adverse medical events and complications is one fifth to one tenth of a
traditional kidney transplant and the benefits are immense. The kidney function
and overall patient’s recovery is far superior than a traditional
transplant.The patient has a very small incision so his natural daily life is
not altered after the transplant. The problem however is of it being a
technically complex procedure and hence there are only a few surgeons who are
able to perform this procedure and deliver good results. The learning curve is
steep, thereby dissuading many surgeons from taking it up, hence it is
practiced only in select elite institutions of the world.

Chandigarh 27th September:- It’s time to let efforts flow where they need to! India’s
North-East region has been heavily hit by floods throughout the monsoon, and
the good people at #SOCIAL have stepped in, to raise funds for rebuilding the
region. #SocialSupports: ARTery -a silent art auction, with all proceeds going
to support the Nagaland Chief Minister’s Relief Fund.
While bigger cities get attention every season for the
difficulties faced by their residents, the states in the North-East receive
much lesser attention. In light of this, #SOCIAL has initiated #ARTery - so as
to provide coordinated relief from across the five cities (that they’re present
in) to every afflicted area of the country via art, for a greater cause.
Shobita Kadan, Director - Marketing & Strategy, Impresario
Handmade Restaurants, said that SOCIAL is an integral part of the cultural
landscape of the young urban consumer. "Both art and contributing to the
greater good are things that matter to them - so why not bring both into one
space? We wanted to provide a platform for artists who wished to contribute to
the rehabilitations through their creations.
Each stellar piece for the auction has been donated by
independent Indian artists from across the country. The auction will kick-off
with a live art piece on 27th September, where the artists will speak to the
audience about their contribution and field questions from those in attendance.
The art itself will be displayed at Sector 7 Social (right here in
Chandigarh!), and for a minimum price -you can drop by anytime, to make your
own bid from the 27th September the 3rd October.
So if you want to see how art can (literally) change the world,
swing by #SOCIAL to pick your very own piece and contribute for the greater
good, while you’re at it.
