Scarless Magnified Advanced Robotic Kidney Transplantation

As the life expectancy, quality of life and standards of living are improving worldwide, surgeons and physicians across the globe are making use of the modern cutting edge technology to extend the benefits of major surgical procedures such as kidney transplant in a painless and morbidity free manner so as to have a positive impact on the patients in terms of their safety, recovery and overall healing in a complication free way. Robotic surgery is one of the major breakthroughs in the field of surgery and holds much promise in the field of kidney transplantation.

When traditional open kidney transplant surgery was started six decades back it was one of the most surgically challenging procedures and hence the steps remained unchanged since then without any major improvements. Over the past decade with the advent and evolution of Robotic surgery more and more specialised Urologists getting trained and specialised in kidney transplantation, the transplant procedure has witnessed a positive change with the use of surgical robotics. It has resulted in marked improvement in the overall outcomes and success rates of kidney transplant in terms of pain, blood loss, weakness, scarring, complications and hospital stay. The results after a SMART transplant procedure have revolutionised the overall success rates in kidney transplantation.

  • Excellent healing & recovery even in diabities & heartpatients
  • Upto 10 times more enhanced 3D magnification & surgical precision
  • Most advanced kidney transplant technique in the world

Why Choose SMART

The recovery after a robotic kidney transplant is usually quicker, uneventful and complete within a very short span of time as compared to the traditional open kidney transplant procedure. Most of the patients are up and about after the kidney transplant within 3-4 days of the surgery.

Safer effective and precise

The magnanimously designed Davinci robotic surgical system is controlled by a team of transplant specialists led by one of the most experienced and highly qualified urologist transplant surgeon, who has an experience of more than a thousand kidney transplants. The robot provides ten times magnification than a normal traditional transplant which amplifies and enhances the surgical precision ten fold. The surgery is much more precise and accurate than the naked eye. The flexibility of robotic arms and instruments provide surgeon’s wrists capability to suture the blood vessels in a much more precise manner than ever. Overall it provides the best and successful results after a kidney transplant.

Fewer complications

The surgical complications related to a transplant such as blood loss, pain, wound infections, hernia formation and muscle weakness are minimum with the SMART transplant. The incision is barely visible after three months. Surgical site infections rates are almost close to zero. Most of the patients will start eating the next day and are up and out from the bed on day one after transplant. This type of kidney transplant has also been safely done in a number of patients who are obese, diabetic or heart patients.

Faster healing

The entire procedure is carried out using very small buttonhole incisions, minimising the trauma to the body and thus the healing is better and quicker as compared to a traditional open transplant, where the incision stretches upto 20-25 cms. Most patients are able to be up and about the very first day after transplantation. The healing is complete in a very short time as compared to the traditional open transplant. Since no muscles are cut so the blood loss is minimised too.

Painless and quicker recovery

Most patients would be up and about, the very first day after a transplant, unlike the traditional transplant where it takes longer. The SMART incision utilised to place the kidney inside is very small hardly 5 cms, which is smartly placed in the lower part of the body and no muscles are actually cut during the procedure, hence the trauma to the body is minimal. The painkiller requirements are almost very less as compared to an open transplant.
