Kidney stones can cause severe pain and significantly disrupt daily activities, making proper treatment essential. Today, kidney stone removal does not always require open surgery. RS Mandaya Royal Puri introduces the advanced Zamenix laser robotic technology, equipped with multifunctional robotic hands to treat kidney stones with high precision—from locating the stones and breaking them down using laser technology to completely removing the fragments. This modern approach is safer, causes minimal pain, and supports faster patient recovery.

Get to Know the Zamenix Kidney Stone Robot at RS Mandaya: Equipped with Robotic Hands to Remove Stones
Kidney stone treatment at RS Mandaya Royal Puri can now be performed using the Zamenix kidney stone laser robot, a modern technology designed to manage kidney stones through a minimally invasive approach. This robotic system enables highly accurate procedures with lower risks for patients.
The Zamenix robot is equipped with versatile robotic arms that assist doctors in detecting, breaking down, and removing kidney stones with precision. The main functions of the Zamenix robotic arm include:
- High-resolution camera, used to clearly visualize the position of kidney stones, including those located in hard-to-reach areas
- Advanced laser technology, designed to fragment kidney stones—including very hard stones—into fine particles
- Specialized graspers, used to retrieve and remove residual stone fragments after fragmentation
By combining camera, laser, and grasper functions in a single robotic system, kidney stone treatment becomes more precise, effective, and safe. This technology also helps speed up recovery, allowing patients to return to daily activities sooner.
What Are the Advantages of the Zamenix Kidney Stone Robot at RS Mandaya Puri?
RS Mandaya Royal Puri offers the Zamenix kidney stone surgery robot as a modern, safe, and effective solution for treating kidney stones. Its advanced features make procedures more precise, comfortable, and low-risk for patients. Key advantages of the Zamenix laser kidney stone robot include:
1. No incisions and minimal bleeding
The procedure is performed using a very small-diameter tube inserted through the urinary tract, eliminating the need for surgical incisions. This results in minimal bleeding, a lower risk of infection, and greater comfort compared to conventional surgery.
2. Respiratory synchronization
Respiratory synchronization technology allows the laser to adjust its movement according to the patient’s breathing pattern. This ensures stable and safe stone fragmentation while reducing the risk of injury to surrounding tissues.
3. Smart navigation with automatic memory system
The Zamenix robot is equipped with intelligent navigation that can store the pathway and position of kidney stones. If the instrument needs to be temporarily removed for cleaning or replacement, the system can automatically return to the exact same location. This feature shortens procedure time and significantly improves success rates.
4. Faster recovery and lower risk of complications
Because the procedure is incision-free and involves minimal bleeding, patients generally recover more quickly. Most can be discharged sooner and resume activities faster, with a much lower risk of post-procedure complications compared to conventional methods.
