Modern health care paradigm emphasizes not just on treating the disease, but also on improving the quality of life of patients while minimising the morbidity and stress of the treatment. We take pride in shouldering the responsibility of pioneering the best in surgical craft for our patients. It is our guiding principle that no patient should have any unmet need once he or she visits RGCIRC and thus, our infrastructure always stays in evolution in sync with latest times. Presently we have 2 Da Vinci Robotic systems and one Indian version installed and have performed more than 4000 robotic surgical procedures. RGCIRC has been designated as epicentre for robotic surgery training in India in recognition of our high volumes and technical expertise, while maintaining an impeccable track record of surgical safety.

In India, our centre is credited with the highest numbers of neobladder formation after radical cystectomy. Our own innovation “Pitcher Pot Neobladder” has minimal requirement for clean intermittent catheterization, which is main drawback of conventionally described neobladders. Results proving excellent outcomes consistent over more than a decade have been published in international peer reviewed academic journals(https://bjui-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/bco2.82 

Post prostatectomy urinary incontinence is one of the most dreaded complications of robotic radical prostatectomy. We were the pioneers of the “Retzius sparing technique” in the Indian subcontinent which restores urinary continence early, resulting in better quality of life after prostatectomy. We have the largest published series of some of the most challenging and rare procedures in Uro-oncology such as robotic post chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5635672/), and robotic video-endoscopic groin dissection(https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0022534718300107) in the world. We are ably supported by world class laboratory services and have an in-house molecular lab equipped with latest Next generation sequencing platform – ion torrent S5 with chef. We can also perform Nano string, droplet digital PCR, 10 color flowcytometry, and count circulating tumour cells. We were one of the initial practitioners of HIFU and MRI Fusion biopsy in India and have gained the largest experience in the Indian subcontinent over  years.
