Robotic Operation of Bladder Cancer was practiced for the very first time in India at the Kidney Hospital of Nadiad. The entire operation was done by a single doctor and an attendant.
Last week a Kutch resident named Ibrahimbhai was operated for bladder cancer at the kidney hospital of Nadiad, Kheda. Ibrahimbhai was suffering from this cancer since a long time and was not able to get proper medication. One of his friends advised him to visit this hospital and at the same a robotic machine was also brought in the hospital to cater robotic surgery. He is the first patient to be operated with a robotic machine and he recovered within 7 days instead of 15 days after the surgery.
In the previous time when this surgery was done a cut was made on the stomach of the patient and then he/she was operated with hands. But now with this robotic surgery only four holes are made and the entire surgery is done by the robotic hand.
This kind of operation is very painful for the patient and is done at one or two places of world. But now doctors are claiming that this operation is first of its kind not only in India but in Asia. They also say that these kinds of operations are very difficult but now robotic system has eased it.
It is likely that after Nadiad Kidney Hospital, many other hospitals will also start practicing this robotic operation. When such inventions are affordable to common people then they will prove as blessings in real sense.
