Dr Mani Menon at Vattikuti Urology Institute



Dr Mani Menon who is Pioneering robotic surgeon was the event's symposium director. IRUS has provided the platform for the leading minds in the field of robotic urology to come together and exchange their ideas on minimally invasive urologic surgery. The symposium attracts surgeons, urology specialists, nurses, operating room coordinators, hospital administrators, and residents from around the world. Intuitive Surgical, one of America's fastest growing companies, is among the event’s prominent sponsors and has also featured the event on its homepage. Vattikuti Urology Institute in the field of minimally invasive surgery has allowed IRUS to host more than 50 faculty members including many of the world's prominent robotic surgeons and two former presidents of the American Urological Association. International Robotic Urology Symposium (IRUS) was basically focused on robotic kidney surgery and the myriad of surgical approaches to it. Some main procedure which was discussed for robotic kidney surgery are :

•  Robotic Partial Nephrectomy

• Robotic Radical Nephrectomy
• Robotic Pyeloplasty
• Robotic Nephroureterectomy
• Robotic Pyelolithotomy
• Robotic Renal Cyst Decortication:
• Robotic Radical Cystectomy:

Some of the benefits of robotic kidney surgery was also discussed in Symposium like It decreased risk of injury to bowel or other nearby organs

• • Faster return of bowel function after surgery
• • Reduced hospital stay (one day in healthy patients)
• • Less postoperative pain and less need for pain medication
• • Quicker return to normal activity and work

Other sessions were also held which offerings OR management for robotic surgery, economics for robotic programs, robotic pediatric urology, robotic bladder surgery, robotic gynecologic surgery and robotic prostate cancer surgery. Faculty members, robotic surgeons and former presidents of the American Urological Association have also observed live surgeries and 3D surgical video sessions.
