The globally renowned Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology (KMIO), a premier cancer treatment center in India, has achieved a historic milestone by successfully completing 1,000 robotic surgeries.
Kidwai is the first government hospital to adopt robotic technology and has integrated the advanced robotic surgical system, achieving this remarkable milestone. Among government institutions, Kidwai stands out as the only one offering robotic surgery facilities.
The institute continues to set benchmarks in healthcare. Under the Ayushman Bharat Arogya Karnataka scheme, it has emerged as the hospital providing the highest number of treatments. Kidwai is also recognized as the only super-specialty hospital offering extensive inpatient care. Additionally, it houses Karnataka’s sole bone marrow transplant (BMT) unit, where both allogenic and autologous bone marrow transplants have been successfully performed.
To ensure convenience for patients, the institute operates a 24/7 pharmacy. A separate committee has been established to reduce treatment costs for families lacking BPL benefits or facing financial constraints. Kidwai has also decided to offer cashless treatment for KSRTC employees.
Minister Dr. Sharan Prakash Patil Commends the Achievement
Kidwai’s accomplishment of completing 1,000 robotic surgeries is commendable. “The hospital offers world-class cancer treatment at no cost or at affordable rates to patients. Adopting innovative medical technologies has enabled Kidwai to deliver high-quality care promptly,” said Dr. Sharan Prakash Patil, minister for medical education, skill development & livelihood.
Over the past nine years, the use of robotic technology has made 1,000 surgeries possible, marking a historic achievement. Kidwai remains at the forefront of patient care, establishing itself as a leading cancer treatment center in India and globally. The institute’s efforts and achievements are noteworthy, minister Patil added.
