16-Month-Old Baby Operated From 1,600 km Away!

Hyderabad, September 18, 2025: We are familiar with robotic surgery and have heard about telesurgery as well. But combining both to provide relief to patients in remote areas has now become a reality. Using India’s indigenously developed SSI Mantra robotic system, such telesurgeries were successfully performed. Dr. V. Chandramohan, Managing Director of Preeti Kidney Hospital and Chief Urologist, shared details of these remarkable achievements.

“A 16-month-old baby was born with a congenital kidney problem. The renal pelvis – a funnel-shaped part of the kidney that connects to the ureter – was blocked, a condition known as ureteropelvic obstruction. As a result, urine could not flow from the kidney to the bladder. The baby needed surgery to clear the obstruction. Since the child was only 16 months old, we decided to opt for robotic surgery. The baby was brought to Preeti Kidney Hospital, Kondapur, while I sat at the console in Gurugram at the SSI Mantra office, about 1,600 kilometers away. I performed the surgery remotely through the robot. It took just an hour, enabled by 5G technology and robotic systems. Earlier, a similar telesurgery had been reported in China for an 8-year-old. This makes our case the world’s youngest telesurgery ever performed on a 16-month-old child, who was discharged the very next day,” explained Dr. Chandramohan.

In another case, a woman in Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, suffered from urinary leakage after a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus). She required advanced robotic surgery, but local surgeons there were only trained in open procedures. They reached out to Preeti Hospital, and through 5G connectivity and the SSI Mantra robotic system, Dr. Chandramohan performed the surgery remotely. The operation lasted an hour and 20 minutes, marking the first-ever cross-state telesurgery of its kind.

These surgeries were made possible with the support of the hospital’s Executive Director Dr. Roopa, CEO Dr. Rangappa, Senior Surgeon Dr. Ramakrishna, Senior Urologists Dr. Hemant and Dr. Soundarya, Pediatric Anesthetist Dr. Devender, Pediatrician Dr. Vamsi, coordinators Rajender, Ganesh, and Anil, Senior Technician Sridhar, robotic engineers Durgesh and Ishan Prashant, SSI Mantra Director Vishva, and SSI Mantra Robotics CEO Dr. Sudhir Srivastava, among others. The collective effort of this Indian team proved that distance is no barrier when technology and expertise come together.

“India is a vast country, and it is not possible to have top-level specialists in every corner. If groups of doctors invest in surgical robots, experts from major centers can operate remotely. A single console can connect with up to ten robots simultaneously. This not only helps patients but also serves as a learning tool for local doctors,” Dr. Chandramohan added.

The session featured leading oncologists and gynaecologists sharing perspectives on HPV vaccination, Pap smear testing, and solutions for improving awareness and access to care.

Dr. Upasana Arora, Managing Director, Yashoda Medicity, said, “Our vision is to create a healthcare ecosystem where prevention is as important as treatment. Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable forms of cancer if diagnosed early. Through such initiatives, we are working to spread awareness so that every woman has the chance to live a healthier, longer life.”

Ms. Sunita Dayal, Hon’ble Mayor of Ghaziabad, said, “On the occasion of our Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s birthday, it is inspiring to see the Yashoda Institute of Cancer Care’s Women’s Cancer Center lead efforts in women’s cancer care and preventive health. Such initiatives support healthier families and inclusive global growth.”

Don’t Let Arthritis Take Over: Smart Ways to Fight Joint Pain

INDIA, 16 septembder 2025: Everyday movements, like climbing stairs or squatting, are often accompanied by a nagging stiffness that many brushes off as ageing. But such persistent joint discomfort is not something to ignore. In India, where daily routines often involve activities like squatting during household chores or prolonged standing in bustling markets, joint pain has become a common concern affecting people across age groups. Arthritis, an umbrella term for conditions causing inflammation in the joints, can disrupt mobility and quality of life if left unaddressed. With rising awareness through initiatives from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, understanding this condition is key to taking control. The question isn’t just how to treat arthritis, but how to outsmart it before it takes hold.

Understanding Arthritis and Its Key Symptoms

Arthritis refers to inflammation of one or more joints, leading to pain and limited movement. Common types include osteoarthritis, which stems from wear and tear of joint cartilage, and rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disorder where the body’s immune system attacks joint tissues. Other forms like gout arise from crystal deposits in joints, while rheumatic arthritis can follow infections.

Key symptoms often start subtly but worsen over time. Persistent pain in joints, especially during movement or after rest, is a hallmark sign. Stiffness, particularly in the morning or after inactivity, can last for hours. Swelling around affected areas, accompanied by warmth and redness, indicates inflammation. Many experience a grinding sensation or crepitation during joint use, along with reduced flexibility that hampers daily activities. According to the Community-oriented Program for Control of Rheumatic Diseases (COPCORD) Bhigwan study, these symptoms are prevalent in rural and urban Indian populations, highlighting the need for early recognition to prevent progression.

Causes and Risk Factors

Several factors contribute to arthritis development, often intertwined with everyday Indian lifestyles. Osteoarthritis commonly results from aging, where joint cartilage degenerates due to repeated stress. Injuries from falls or sports, irregular sleeping patterns, and exposure to cold, damp weather, common in monsoon seasons, can accelerate this process. Rheumatoid arthritis involves genetic predispositions and environmental triggers like infections, while gout is linked to high uric acid levels from dietary habits.

Risk factors abound in modern Indian life. Obesity places extra strain on weight-bearing joints like knees and hips, a concern noted in reports from the Indian Council of Medical Research on non-communicable diseases. Sedentary jobs, prevalent in urban settings, combined with poor posture during long hours at desks, heighten vulnerability. Unhealthy diets low in nutrients but high in processed foods, along with habits like suppressing natural urges or irregular meals, exacerbate issues. Activities such as prolonged kneeling in traditional occupations or twisting movements in sports further elevate risks. 

Prevention Strategies

Preventing arthritis begins with proactive lifestyle choices tailored to Indian contexts. Maintaining an optimal weight through balanced nutrition reduces joint stress, incorporate anti-inflammatory foods like ginger, garlic, and turmeric, staples in Indian cuisine. Regular physical activity, such as yoga or brisk walking, strengthens muscles around joints and improves flexibility without overstraining them.

Avoid excessive repetitive motions; for instance, alternate between sitting and standing during work or use supportive cushions for squatting. Hydration is crucial, as adequate water intake lubricates joints. Quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, as recommended, can mitigate risks. Early screening for comorbidities like diabetes, often co-occurring in India, allows timely intervention. 

Lifestyle Habits That Help Protect Your Joints

Exercise, the Smart Way – Gentle, targeted movements, like quadriceps strengthening and low-impact activities such as walking, swimming, or cycling, support joint strength and relieve pain. Avoiding high-impact exercises such as running, deep squats, or jumping can help reduce strain and inflammation. 

Maintain a Healthy Weight – Excess weight increases pressure on joints, especially knees and hips, accelerating wear and amplifying pain. Even modest weight loss makes a real difference, easing mechanical stress and slowing arthritis progression.  

Anti-Inflammatory Diet for Joint Wellness – Food can be medicine. An Indian-style anti-inflammatory diet rich in leafy greens, berries, turmeric, ginger, nuts, seeds, and omega-3-rich fatty fish helps reduce inflammation and supports joint health. Maintaining a balanced vegetarian plan focused on whole foods can also help manage symptoms effectively 

Conclusion: Take Control Before Arthritis Does

Arthritis might be common, but it does not have to define your life. By embracing wellness habits, from mindful movement and weight management to healing diets and early action, you hold the power to preserve your joints. The path forward is twofold: nurture your body with consistency, and act at the earliest sign of discomfort. Wisdom and prevention today can transform tomorrow’s mobility, and let living stay free of joint pain.

Aster Medcity Performs Kerala’s First Robotic-Assisted Cardiac Bypass, Ushering in New Era of Cardiac Care

Bangalore, September 15, 2025: Aster Medcity, one of the best multispecialty hospitals in the country, trusted for its clinical expertise and use of cutting-edge technology, has successfully performed the state’s first-ever robotic-assisted Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) surgery, marking a significant advancement in cardiac surgical care. This pioneering procedure was performed on a 42-year-old woman, Ms. Nisha Purushothaman. The patient, hailing from Guruvayur, Thrissur Dist. experienced a rapid recovery and was discharged just four days after the surgery.  

Ms. Purushothaman, who was diagnosed with severe triple vessel disease, consulted doctors at Aster Medcity after conventional angioplasty was deemed not a viable option. Fearing a traditional open-heart surgery, which involves a large incision and longer recovery time, the surgical team recommended a robotic-assisted MIDCAB (Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass) procedure, offering her a superior and safer alternative. While minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) has been a significant advancement, robotic assistance takes it to the next level. The robotic system provides surgeons with enhanced precision, control, and visualization during complex operations.  

Commenting on this, Mr. Ramesh Kumar, COO, Aster DM Healthcare, said, “At Aster, our mission has always been to bring the most advanced healthcare solutions closer to the people of India. The successful completion of Kerala’s first robotic-assisted cardiac bypass surgery is a proud milestone for us and a transformative step for cardiac care in the region. This breakthrough not only reflects the expertise and dedication of our medical teams but also our commitment to adopting cutting-edge technology that ensures better outcomes and faster recovery for patients. We believe such innovations will redefine the future of surgery, making complex procedures safer, less invasive, and more patient friendly.” 

The surgical team from the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, under the leadership of Senior Consultant Dr. M.M. Yusuf, performed the complex procedure with precision. Other key members of the team included senior consultants, Dr. Manoj P. Nair and Dr. George Varghese Kurien, and Associate Consultants, Dr. Sabin Sam, and Dr. Jishnu Palliyani.  

“Initially I was a little anxious and had some reservations, but when the doctors explained the entire process and how safe robotic-assisted procedure is, it gave me the confidence to go ahead,” said the patient, Ms. Nisha Purushothaman.

The surgical team at Aster Medcity followed the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol, a patient-centered approach designed to help patients recover quickly from major surgery. The robotic-assisted procedure perfectly complemented this protocol by minimizing surgical stress on the body.  Robotic-assisted surgery offers significant advantages for patients. It provides a more cosmetically pleasing result with much smaller incisions, which often leads to less visible scarring. It also contributes to a faster recovery, allowing patients to return to their normal daily activities much sooner. Additionally, this advanced technique reduces the risk of post-surgical complications and pain.

Dr. M. M Yusuf, Senior Consultant in Cardiothoracic Surgery who spearheaded the procedure said, “This is a major leap forward in cardiac surgery. The robotic system allows us to navigate complex anatomical areas with enhanced control and visualization, leading to superior surgical outcomes and reduced trauma for the patient.” said. Dr. George Varghese Kurien, Senior Consultant in Cardiothoracic Surgery, explained that the robotic arms can maneuver in tight spaces not easily accessible with conventional tools, leading to more accurate surgical steps and minimal blood loss. 

Dr. Nalanda Jayadev, Chief Executive Officer, Aster Medcity, Dr. Shuhaib Kader, Chief Operating Officer, Aster Medcity, Dr. Dilip Paniker, Chief of Medical Services, Aster Medcity, Patient Nisha Purushothaman, Senior Consultants from cardiothoracic surgery Dr. M.M. Yusuf, Dr. Manoj P. Nair and Dr. George Varghese Kurien, Associate Consultants, Dr. Sabin Sam, and Dr. Jishnu Palliyani attended the press conference held at Aster Medcity, Kochi.
