Renal Salvage Against All Odds: Robotic Excision of a Left Sided Hilar Paraganglioma Adherent to Renal Vessels

Renal Salvage Against All Odds: Robotic Excision of a Left Sided Hilar Paraganglioma Adherent to Renal Vessels. This video earned First Place in the KS Robotic Surgery Awards at the Robotic Surgeons Council of India meetings April 8 & 9, 2017. It was entered and produced by Dr. Ashwin Mallya, and features the surgery of Dr. Rajesh Ahlawat, Chairman of the Fortis Escorts Kidney and Urology Institute. In this award-winning video, the patient is a 43-yr. old female patient with a left renal paranganglioma, splaying renal vessels. The patient’s issues are well shown and described, as well as the plans for robotic ports and surgery. We see the steps through excellent da Vinci camera robotic surgery video.
