About
M. Chandarana is a pioneering hepatobiliary and robotic surgeon whose work has significantly advanced minimally invasive oncology in India. His primary research focuses on the application of robotic technology in complex hepatobiliary surgeries, particularly for liver and pancreatic cancers. Chandarana’s major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and safety of robotic resections in a resource-constrained setting, notably through his landmark paper on the initial experience with the Xi da Vinci system in India, which has garnered 17 citations. This work introduced a mobile tower-based robotic platform to Indian surgical practice, highlighting its enhanced functionality and perioperative benefits over traditional open surgeries. By documenting the first series of such procedures in the country, Chandarana has helped establish a foundation for robotic hepatobiliary oncology in South Asia, reducing recovery times and improving surgical precision. His achievements include pioneering the adoption of cutting-edge robotic technology in a developing healthcare system, making him a key figure in the global conversation on expanding access to advanced surgical care.
