This article is for men with a prostate, kidney, or bladder cancer diagnosis (or a family member supporting one) who want to understand why robotic surgery is now the standard for urological cancer and how to choose a high-volume robotic surgeon in Delhi.
Urological cancers - prostate, bladder, kidney - require precision treatment to deliver the best outcomes.
In Delhi, I have built my practice around a single core principle: high-volume robotic surgery, combined with multidisciplinary cancer care, gives patients the best chance of cure with the smallest cost to quality of life.
I am Dr. Tushar Aditya Narain, a fellowship-trained uro-oncologist and robotic surgery specialist - among the best uro oncologists in Delhi for high-volume robotic cancer surgery, with 500+ robotic prostatectomies and additional robotic kidney and bladder procedures at Max Smart Super Speciality Hospital, Saket and Max Hospital, Gurgaon.
This guide covers:
Why robotic surgery is now the standard for urological cancer
My credentials, expertise, and how the care team is structured
Conditions treated and how to schedule a consultation
Why Robotic Surgery for Urological Cancer?
Robotic-assisted surgery using the Da Vinci Xi System offers precision for prostate, kidney, and bladder cancers.
The key advantages in my practice:
1. Superior Precision and Minimal Invasion
3D magnification and wristed instruments allow tumour removal with millimetre accuracy
The technique preserves surrounding nerves and blood vessels - critical for prostate cancer patients whose urinary and sexual function depend on those structures
2. Faster Recovery and Less Pain
Smaller incisions mean shorter hospital stays - typically 2 to 3 days for robotic surgery, compared to 5 to 7 days for open surgery
Lower risk of infection
Most patients are back to light activity within 1 to 2 weeks
3. Patterns I See in My Delhi Practice
Across hundreds of robotic cancer procedures, the patterns are consistent: better cancer-control rates, faster return to normal life, and meaningfully reduced post-operative complications compared with open approaches.
About Dr. Tushar Aditya Narain: Fellowship-Trained Uro-Oncologist in Delhi
Credentials and Training
Director and Lead Surgeon, Robotic Uro-Oncology at Max Smart Super Speciality Hospital, Saket and Max Hospital, Gurgaon
Education: MBBS, MS, MCh (Urology) from top Indian institutions including AIIMS, Delhi
Fellowship: Robotic Pelvic Uro-Oncology at University College London Hospital - specialised training in prostate and bladder cancer surgeries
Intuitive Surgical da Vinci Proctor - the surgeon who trains other surgeons across India
Why Choose Dr. Tushar?
500+ Robotic Surgeries Performed - high-volume practice is associated with better outcomes
International Standards - I follow UK and US protocols for cancer care, brought back from my London training
Multidisciplinary Approach - I work directly with oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists for personalised treatment plans
Conditions Treated with Robotic Surgery
1. Prostate Cancer
Robotic prostatectomy is now the modern standard for localised prostate cancer
Benefits: preserved urinary and sexual function, faster recovery, durable cancer control
2. Bladder Cancer
Robotic radical cystectomy with neobladder reconstruction minimises lifestyle impact
Selected cases benefit from the precision of the robotic approach
3. Kidney Cancer
Partial nephrectomy is a kidney-sparing surgery for early-stage tumours
Radical nephrectomy is performed when the tumour size or location requires it
4. Rare and Complex Cases
Testicular, penile, and ureteral cancers - each handled with multidisciplinary input
Robotic Surgery at Max Healthcare: What to Expect
Step-by-Step Process
Pre-Op Evaluation: PSA, MRI, biopsy review, PET-CT or PSMA PET scan to stage the cancer accurately
Surgery: 2 to 4 hours under general anaesthesia, with five small keyhole incisions
Recovery: Discharge in 2 to 3 days; light work resumes in 1 to 2 weeks
Multidisciplinary Cancer Care
What you get at Max Healthcare is not just a surgeon - it is the full team. Radiology for pre-op imaging and post-op surveillance. Medical oncology for any adjuvant therapy.
Pathology for histology and grading.
Pelvic-floor physiotherapy and penile rehabilitation for functional recovery.
All under one institutional roof.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is robotic surgery safe for elderly patients?
Yes.
The minimally invasive approach reduces peri-operative risk for older patients, which is one reason I increasingly offer robotic surgery to patients in their 70s and beyond when their cardiac fitness allows.
2. How durable are robotic surgery outcomes?
In high-volume practice, long-term cancer control rates are favourable with regular follow-up. PSA tracking after prostate surgery, scheduled imaging for kidney and bladder cases.
3. Are there side effects?
Temporary urinary incontinence (typically 1 to 3 months in my practice) is possible after prostatectomy and manageable with Kegel exercises.
Sexual function recovery is a longer arc and depends on nerve-sparing feasibility - both are discussed in detail during the pre-op consultation.
