Dr. Vikram Barua Kaushik

Dr. Vikram Barua Kaushik is Head - Urology, Kidney Transplant & Robotic Surgery at Manipal Hospital Gurugram. Manipal's current hospital communication describes more than 20 years of experience and highlights his work in endourology, prostate disease, kidney transplantation and uro-oncology. His qualifications include MBBS, MS in General Surgery and DNB in Urology/Genito-Urinary Surgery.

His practice includes kidney-stone surgery, robotic and laparoscopic urology, renal transplantation and complex prostate surgery. Procedures associated with his current profile include ureteroscopy, PCNL, RIRS, laparoscopic donor surgery, robotic radical prostatectomy and other minimally invasive approaches for urinary-tract disease.

Dr. Kaushik also treats kidney, prostate and bladder cancers, together with PUJ obstruction, vesicoureteral reflux, urethral disease and selected reconstructive urological problems. His previous academic work includes presentations on robotic radical prostatectomy, tubeless PCNL, laparoscopic ureteropelvic procedures and reconstructive techniques.

The exact procedure selected depends on disease stage, anatomy, kidney function and previous treatment.

For urology or transplant review, useful records include ultrasound or CT scans, renal-function tests, urine studies, PSA where relevant, pathology and previous operative notes. Kidney-transplant assessment additionally requires donor and recipient evaluation.

Cancer cases may need multidisciplinary review with oncology and radiology, while stone and obstruction cases are planned according to stone burden, location and urinary anatomy. Follow-up may include renal-function monitoring, stent removal, pathology review or transplant surveillance depending on the procedure overall.
