About

Dr. K.K. Sharma is a pioneering cardiac surgeon whose work has centered on advancing minimally invasive and robotically enhanced coronary artery bypass surgery. His major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and precision of totally endoscopic cardiac procedures, both on beating and arrested hearts, using robotic telemanipulation systems. In his landmark 2005 study, which has accumulated 8 citations, Dr. Sharma reported on 125 patients who underwent robotically enhanced coronary artery bypass surgery between December 2002 and February 2004. This work helped establish the safety and technical efficacy of robotic assistance in complex cardiac revascularization, paving the way for broader adoption of endoscopic techniques. By reducing surgical trauma and improving precision, his research has contributed to shorter recovery times and better patient outcomes. Dr. Sharma’s efforts have been instrumental in bridging the gap between traditional open-heart surgery and cutting-edge robotic interventions, marking him as a key figure in the evolution of modern cardiac surgery.
