Eternal Hospital has launched Rajasthan's first da Vinci Xi Robotic Cardiac Surgery Program for coronary artery bypass surgery, introducing Robotic Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (Robotic CABG) as a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with coronary artery disease.

Since the programme commenced in March 2026, the hospital has been performing robotic bypass procedures using the da Vinci Xi Surgical System, reporting encouraging clinical outcomes.

Unlike conventional open-heart surgery, Robotic CABG enables surgeons to perform bypass procedures through small incisions without dividing the breastbone. 

The robotic platform offers high-definition three-dimensional visualisation and enhanced surgical precision, helping reduce surgical trauma while maintaining high standards of cardiac care.

According to the hospital, patients undergoing robotic bypass surgery benefit from smaller incisions, reduced postoperative pain, lower blood loss, fewer wound-related complications, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery, enabling an earlier return to normal daily activities.

Dr. Ajeet Bana, Chairman, Cardiac Sciences, Eternal Hospital, said, "Robotic CABG offers patients a less invasive treatment option with faster recovery while maintaining the same standards of surgical excellence. Our goal is to make advanced cardiac care more accessible to patients across Rajasthan and neighbouring states.”

The hospital said the launch of the robotic cardiac surgery programme strengthens its commitment to expanding access to advanced cardiovascular care in Rajasthan and North India by combining cutting-edge robotic technology with multidisciplinary clinical expertise.
