Lilavati Hospital and Spina Bifida Foundation (1)

In response to the increasing demand for specialized fetal intervention and surgery, Lilavati Hospital & Research Centre, in partnership with the Spina Bifida Foundation, is proud to announce the inauguration of a groundbreaking fetal surgery department. This initiative, developed in collaboration with the Medical University of Silesia in Poland, aims to provide advanced care for unborn infants with conditions such as Spina Bifida, large neck masses, lower urinary tract obstructions (LUTO), and certain tumors.

Fetal surgery involves operating on the fetus during pregnancy, offering the potential to significantly improve long-term outcomes for children with birth defects. Dr. Santosh Karmarkar, Senior Consultant Pediatric Surgeon at Lilavati Hospital, emphasized the importance of early intervention in preventing complications for unborn infants. This partnership signifies a commitment to pushing the boundaries of medical excellence and improving the lives of both mothers and infants.


To raise awareness about the importance of fetal surgery in India, Lilavati Hospital is organizing the Fetal Surgery And Urinary Incontinence Surgery Twin Conference (FSUI 2024) at The Trident Hotel, Nariman Point. This three-day event will bring together leading experts, practitioners, and researchers from around the world to discuss various aspects of fetal surgery and its development in India.

Distinguished speakers at the FSUI 2024 conference include Dr. Santosh Karmarkar, Organising Chairman, Dr. Agnieszka Pastuszka from Poland, and Dr. Tandulwadkar, President-Elect of FOGSI. Topics such as continence surgery techniques and intricate surgical procedures will be explored through intensive discussions and specially curated videos.

Mr. Rohit Shelatkar, Director of Meyer Vitabiotics, expressed commitment to advancing healthcare in India through collaborations with Lilavati Hospital and the Spina Bifida Foundation. He anticipates contributing to innovative initiatives that will enhance the healthcare sector in the future.
