5 January 2024
Upon completing the Vattikuti Foundation Fellowship in Robotic Uro-Oncology program in 2021, Dr. Varun V. Agarwal acknowledged: “I entered this field of robotics only after I got the Vattikuti Fellowship. Since then, there has been no looking back…!” Robotic surgery may still be in its nascent stages for many surgeries in the pediatric patient population, but is becoming more common with the skilled hand of Dr. Agarwal, now Consultant Urologist, Uro-Oncologist & Robotic Surgeon at Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital. According to him, “Yes, apart from adults, robotic surgery is very much possible in children of all ages. The advantages of this amazing technique make the entire process of post surgical period very easy and pain free.”
