In a remarkable medical milestone, Narayana Health City has successfully performed a robot-assisted septal defect closure surgery, marking a significant advancement in minimally invasive cardiac procedures in India.

The complex procedure was carried out by a team of expert cardiac surgeons using a state-of-the-art surgical robot, enabling unprecedented precision, reduced recovery time, and minimal scarring. This breakthrough demonstrates how robotic technology is redefining the future of cardiac surgery, making procedures safer and more patient-centric.

A septal defect, commonly known as a hole in the heart, typically requires open-heart surgery. However, the adoption of robot-assisted techniques allows surgeons to perform the repair through small incisions, significantly reducing trauma and post-operative complications.

Dr. [Name], Chief Cardiac Surgeon at Narayana Health City, said, “This successful robot-assisted septal defect closure is a milestone in our journey toward integrating technology into advanced cardiac care. It represents a new era of precision and recovery speed for patients.”

The surgery was performed at Narayana Institute of Cardiac Sciences (NICS), part of the Narayana Health network, which has been at the forefront of pioneering robot-assisted surgeries in India across specialties such as urology, oncology, and gynecology.

This achievement underscores Narayana Health’s commitment to leveraging cutting-edge innovation to deliver world-class healthcare, in alignment with its mission to make advanced medical technologies accessible and affordable to all.

With this success, the hospital aims to further expand its robotic surgery program, training more clinicians and exploring its application in complex cardiovascular and thoracic cases
