Press Release – 11 September 2026, Gurugram, India
Manipal Hospital Gurugram announced that Dr. Amita Shah, Chairman – Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Robotic Laparoscopy & Endoscopy Surgery, performed 41 robot‑assisted gynaecological surgeries within a 90‑day period, marking the first time a gynaecologist in India has achieved this volume.
Endometriosis, a condition affecting an estimated 190 million women worldwide, was the focus of these procedures. The hospital highlighted several representative cases: a 32‑year‑old with deep endometriosis; a 29‑year‑old who successfully conceived after a fertility‑preserving robotic surgery; a 36‑year‑old with an endometriotic cyst comparable in size to an 18‑week pregnancy; and a 31‑year‑old with bilateral cysts and extensive pelvic adhesions that involved her fallopian tubes.
All surgeries employed advanced laparoscopic and robot‑assisted techniques, featuring high‑definition 3D vision and enhanced precision. Dr. Shah emphasized that robot‑assisted surgery enables precise removal of diseased tissue while preserving healthy pelvic tissue and reproductive function wherever possible. She noted that endometriosis is often misinterpreted as routine menstrual pain, yet it can cause chronic pain, organ damage, and infertility if left untreated.
The press release underscored the hospital’s broader commitment to women’s healthcare through the adoption of minimally invasive, robotic technologies that deliver faster recovery and fertility preservation. It called for early diagnosis and timely intervention to prevent disease progression and protect long‑term health and quality of life.
