🤝We are pleased to share a major milestone: the first Edge® multi-port surgical robot in India has been commercially installed at HCG Hospital Bengaluru, the flagship hospital of HCG Group – one of the largest cancer care networks in the country. Led by Dr. Raghunath K, Head of Uro-Oncology & Robotic Surgery at HCG, the team successfully completed the first four clinical surgeries using a "mentor-guided, hands-on rotation" model. The procedures included two cases of radical prostatectomy + extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) + bilateral inguinal hernia repair, and two cases of radical prostatectomy + ePLND – all complex uro-oncological procedures. 💬"The Edge system feels smoother, the instruments are highly agile, and the visual field is exceptionally clear," said Dr. Raghunath, who has over 21 years of experience and has performed more than 4,500 surgeries. "What impressed me most is how quickly my team picked it up. They were all using Edge for the first time in live surgeries, yet within a very short time, they were able to complete key steps independently. The learning curve is short, and the system is highly teachable – ideal for surgical training." The Edge® multi-port surgical robot features a fully in-house developed fluorescence imaging system, over 30 specialized instruments, and upgraded ergonomics – designed to enhance precision and control across urology, gynecology, general surgery, and thoracic surgery. 📊With a population of over 1.4 billion, India faces a growing demand for advanced minimally invasive surgical solutions. Edge's combination of high performance, cost-effectiveness, and ease of teaching addresses two critical needs: expanding access to quality care and training the next generation of robotic surgeons. 📍With this milestone, Edge Medical has successfully entered the Indian market, further deepening its presence in South Asia – one of the most dynamic healthcare markets in the world. 🙏We extend our sincere gratitude to Dr. Raghunath, his entire team, and HCG Group for their trust and partnership. Together, we are making robotic surgery more accessible to those who need it most.
