Medanta – The Medicity, Delhi — Cardiac Surgery, Orthopaedics & Neurosurgery
Medanta – The Medicity is among Asia's largest integrated multi-specialty hospitals, located in Gurugram near Delhi.

Cardiac Surgery Excellence
Medanta's cardiac institute operates as a self-contained center with its own ICU, catheterization labs, and step-down wards, supporting high-volume complex cardiac surgery.
CABG & Bypass Surgery
Coronary artery bypass grafting is among Medanta's highest-volume procedures. Both on-pump and off-pump techniques are offered, with individualized surgical planning based on coronary anatomy and patient risk profile. Perioperative mortality for standard-risk CABG is below 1%.
Valve Surgery
The valve surgery program covers repair and replacement for mitral, aortic, and tricuspid valve disease. Medanta's surgeons are experienced with both tissue and mechanical prostheses, and minimally invasive valve surgery is available for appropriate candidates, reducing recovery time compared to conventional sternotomy.
Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery
Selected procedures including valve surgery and coronary revascularization are performed through smaller incisions using thoracoscopic and robotic-assisted approaches. These techniques are associated with reduced blood loss, shorter ICU stays, and faster recovery for eligible patients.
Emergency Cardiac Care
The cardiac center maintains 24-hour emergency coverage for acute coronary syndrome, cardiogenic shock, and arrhythmia emergencies. Dedicated catheterization labs are available around the clock for primary PCI.
Orthopaedics & Joint Replacement
Medanta's orthopaedic institute covers the full range of bone, joint, and spine conditions, with a high caseload in primary and revision joint replacement surgery.
Total Hip Replacement
Primary and revision total hip replacement is performed using cemented and cementless implant systems. Navigation-assisted and minimally invasive techniques are used where appropriate to optimize implant positioning and reduce soft-tissue disruption.
Total Knee Replacement
The high-volume knee replacement program includes conventional and computer-navigated techniques. Unicompartmental (partial) knee replacement is available for patients with disease confined to one compartment. Enhanced recovery protocols reduce hospital stay and support earlier mobilization.
Spine Surgery
Medanta's spine program addresses degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, and trauma. Both fusion and motion-preserving procedures are available. Minimally invasive spine surgery is offered as an alternative to open procedures for selected indications.
Sports Medicine & Arthroscopy
Ligament reconstruction (ACL, PCL), meniscal surgery, and shoulder stabilization procedures are performed arthroscopically. Sports medicine consultants manage non-operative rehabilitation programs alongside surgical intervention.
Neurosurgery
Medanta's neurosurgery department is equipped with intraoperative MRI, neuronavigation, and neurophysiological monitoring to support precision surgery on the brain and spine.
Brain Tumour Surgery
Resection of primary and metastatic brain tumors is performed using neuronavigation, fluorescence-guided surgery (5-ALA), and intraoperative monitoring. Awake craniotomy is available for tumors near eloquent brain areas to maximize safe resection.
Spine Neurosurgery
Complex spinal reconstructions, intradural tumor excision, and syringomyelia management are handled within the neurosurgery spine program. Cases with combined orthopedic and neurological spinal pathology are managed through a joint clinic approach.
Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery
Endoscopic approaches for pituitary tumors, hydrocephalus, and intraventricular lesions reduce the invasiveness of surgery while maintaining access to deep-seated targets.
