SS Innovations International, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSII) announced today that its SSi Mantra surgical robotic system has been approved for telesurgeries in Indonesia and the Philippines, expanding access to remote surgical care in Southeast Asia. The company also reported that more than 150 cumulative telesurgeries have been successfully performed using the SSi Mantra, primarily in India, marking a significant milestone in the adoption of telesurgery.
Among recent highlights, a total of 18 inter-hospital telesurgeries were performed between two Indian cities during an eight-hour period on February 14, 2026. These included 13 gastric bypass procedures by Dr. Mohit Bhandari from Mohak Bariatrics and Robotics in Indore, and five complex gynecological surgeries by Dr. Priya Bhave Chittawar from HER Health Hospital in Bhopal. All procedures utilized the SSi MantrAsana Tele Surgeon Console, a compact chair-based version of the surgeon command center that enables portability and facilitates telesurgeries from various settings, including physician offices.
This achievement follows a robotic telesurgery marathon on December 23, 2025, from SS Innovations' headquarters, where nine surgeons performed 24 telesurgeries within 12 hours on patients across multiple locations in India. The procedures spanned ten different types, including intricate cardiac surgeries.
“The SSi Mantra surgical robotic system continues to pioneer telesurgery, not merely in concept but in real-world practice and rapidly growing adoption by leading physicians,” said Dr. Sudhir Srivastava, Chairman and CEO of SS Innovations. “We are thrilled to receive approval for telesurgeries utilizing the SSi Mantra in two new markets: Indonesia and the Philippines. We also are pleased to surpass the milestone of more than 150 telesurgeries successfully performed with the SSi Mantra, indicating that we are gaining significant traction in enabling state-of-the-art remote surgical care.”
The SSi Mantra's advanced telesurgery capabilities empower the cross-sharing of physicians' expertise and dismantle traditional geographical barriers to care, furthering the mission of driving equitable access to quality healthcare. The system is a user-friendly, modular, multi-arm robot with features including 3 to 5 modular arms, an open-faced ergonomic surgeon console, a large 3D 4K monitor, and over 40 types of robotic instruments supporting various specialties, including cardiac surgery.
On April 9-11, 2026, SS Innovations is hosting the Global Multi-Specialty Robotic Surgery Conference 2026 (SMRSC 2026) in New Delhi, India, where distinguished surgeons and innovators will discuss the future of the field. More than 20 live telesurgeries using the SSi Mantra will be performed during the conference. Registration is available at https://ssinnovations.com/SMRSC_2026/register/.
