Doctors at Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS) here have performed the world's first robotic surgery to treat a rare case of pelvic lipomatosis, an official said.
 
The official spokesperson said, "The case related to a 24-year-old man who was diagnosed with a rare disease."

Given the complexity of the case, the surgical team at SGPGI decided to perform an augmentation cystoplasty with bilateral ureteric reimplantation. This procedure involved enlarging the bladder using a section of the patient's intestine and repositioning the ureters to ensure proper drainage and function.
