SS Innovations International (NASDAQ: SSII) announced that its SSi Mantra surgical robotic system and SSi MantrAsana tele-surgeon console were used in successful telesurgeries at two international medical conferences in October 2026. The demonstrations underscore the company's push to make robotic surgery more accessible and could signal a shift in how surgical expertise is delivered across borders.
At the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery annual meeting in Barcelona, Spain, Chairman and CEO Dr. Sudhir Srivastava performed a robotic-assisted cardiac procedure remotely on a patient in Bengaluru, India, approximately 7,500 miles away. At the Society of Robotic Surgery India conference in New Delhi, four surgeons completed four separate robotic-assisted telesurgeries covering kidney, colorectal, pediatric urological and gynecological procedures. These events marked the public debut of the SSi MantrAsana console in live international settings.
The SSi MantrAsana console is designed to enable real-time remote surgery through ultra-low latency connectivity, high-definition visualization and precise instrument control. As of Oct. 23, 2026, a total of 205 telesurgeries, including complex cardiac procedures, had been performed using the SSi Mantra system. The milestone suggests that telesurgery is moving from experimental trials toward broader clinical adoption.
The implications are significant for healthcare systems facing surgeon shortages and geographic disparities in specialized care. By allowing expert surgeons to operate on patients thousands of miles away, telesurgery could bring advanced cardiac, urological and gynecological procedures to underserved regions. The company's stated vision is to make robotic surgery affordable and accessible to a larger segment of the global population. For investors, the successful demonstrations may bolster confidence in SS Innovations' technology and its potential to capture a share of the growing surgical robotics market. The company's stock trades on NASDAQ under the ticker SSII, and its latest news is available in its newsroom at https://ibn.fm/SSII.
The SSi Mantra system is a modular, multi-arm robotic platform with features including 3 to 5 robotic arms, an open-faced ergonomic surgeon command center, a large 3D 4K monitor and the ability to superimpose 3D models of diagnostic imaging. It utilizes over 40 different types of robotic endo-surgical instruments, including 5mm instruments for pediatric and ENT surgeries. The system has been clinically validated in India in more than 190 different types of surgical procedures. The optional SSi MantrAsana console is a portable, compact alternative to the standard command center, intended to provide equivalent control functionality while enabling enhanced portability and telesurgery capability.
