Udai Omni Hospital, a trusted name in orthopaedics and trauma care for over 50 years in South India, has introduced a new robotic surgery system. The advanced Misso robotic system was officially launched today at the hospital’s Chapel Road location by Shri D. Sridhar Babu, Hon’ble Minister for Information Technology & Industries, Government of Telangana.
The event was attended by senior consultants, patients, and special guests. This marks a big step forward in providing precise and patient-focused orthopaedic care.
Transforming Joint Replacement Surgery with Robotics
The robotic surgery unit is led by Dr. Udai Prakash FRCS (Tr & Orth) UK. He has over 30 years of experience and thousands of successful knee and hip replacements.
Dr. Udai Prakash said, “Robotic knee replacement offers better precision for placing implants and cutting bones. This reduces mistakes and ensures a perfect fit. It also allows us to balance the joint better and align it to each patient’s unique needs. The surgery causes less tissue damage, less pain, and fewer infections. Patients recover faster.”
The system gives real-time feedback to help surgeons work with greater accuracy. This often leads to longer-lasting implants because of better alignment and fixation.
A Major Leap in Orthopaedic Care
Shri D. Sridhar Babu praised the hospital’s work. He said, “Udai Omni Hospital is setting a new standard for healthcare innovation in Telangana. Robotic surgery will help many patients and improve orthopaedic care in the region. Technology plays a key role in making healthcare better. Patients recover faster and experience less pain after surgery thanks to these advances.”
He also shared some facts about robotic surgery. Worldwide, the market is growing 15% each year and is expected to reach $18 billion by 2030. In India, it is growing even faster at 20% annually. This shows the huge potential for modern healthcare technology in the country.
Proudly Indian and Globally Competitive
Dr. Udai Prakash highlighted the importance of the Misso robotic system. “This robot was developed in India and is now competing with the best systems worldwide. Surgeons from Italy are visiting our hospital to learn about it. Unlike traditional knee replacement surgery, which uses a one-size-fits-all approach, this robot customises the surgery to each patient’s natural alignment. This means patients feel more comfortable and the knee works better.”
He added, “In the next 12 to 24 months, the robot will also be used for spine, hip, partial knee replacements, and trauma treatment.”
How Robot-Assisted Surgery Works
The surgery uses:
- A 3D CT scan to create an exact model of the patient’s joint.
- Computer planning to guide the robot.
- Precise bone cutting with real-time adjustments.
- Small incisions to reduce tissue damage and speed up healing.
Bringing World-Class Care to South India
Udai Omni Hospital is now one of the few centers in India offering fully automated robotic knee surgery. This makes advanced care more accessible to patients in Telangana and nearby states.
Dr. Udai Prakash said at the launch, “Robotic surgery changes how we do joint replacements. It helps us create balanced joints, reduces damage, and gives patients a better chance at a pain-free and active life.”
Looking Ahead: More Advanced Services
Besides robotic surgery, Udai Omni Hospital plans to open a new Cath Lab for heart care soon. They also aim to add AI-based diagnostics, more minimally invasive surgeries, and advanced physiotherapy units to improve recovery after surgery.
A Hospital with a Strong Legacy
Founded in 1974 by Dr. Ved Prakash, Udai Omni Hospital is well-known for excellence in orthopaedics, spine surgery, trauma care, children’s orthopaedics, and sports medicine. The 90-year-old founder attended the event and praised the hospital’s progress in technology and patient care.
