KIMS Kingsway Hospitals Performs Central India’s First Robotic-Assisted Mitral Valve Replacement Surgery
Mumbai: KIMS Kingsway Hospitals has successfully performed Central India’s first robotic-assisted Mitral Valve Replacement (MVR) surgery using the advanced da Vinci platform.
The procedure was carried out on a 55-year-old female patient diagnosed with mitral valve stenosis. The robotic-assisted approach minimized surgical invasiveness, reducing recovery time and avoiding visible scars.
The patient experienced reduced blood loss, less pain, faster mobilization, and quicker recovery. She was able to walk within hours of the procedure and was discharged in just four days.
“Robotic-assisted cardiac surgery improves patient recovery. Bringing this technology to Nagpur allows patients to receive specialized treatment locally without traveling to metro cities,” said Dr. Saurabh Varshney, Chief Cardiovascular Surgeon at KIMS Kingsway Hospitals.
KIMS Kingsway Hospitals is the first hospital in Central India to introduce robotic cardiac surgery, pioneering this technology in the region and receiving a positive response from patients.
