Manipal Hospital Varthur Road, Bengaluru

Manipal Hospital Varthur Road is an NABH- and NABL-accredited multispeciality facility in the Whitefield area of east Bengaluru. It operates within the Manipal Hospitals network from Ramagondanahalli near Varthur Kodi. Its centres cover cardiac sciences, critical care, haematology, liver transplantation, neurosciences, orthopaedics, spine care, women’s health and neonatal medicine.

The cancer programme provides medical, radiation and surgical oncology. Treatments include chemotherapy, bone marrow transplantation, robotic-assisted cancer surgery, stereotactic body radiotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, IMRT, IGRT and volumetric modulated arc therapy. Brachytherapy techniques include interstitial, intracavitary and image-guided treatment. Surgeons perform breast-conserving operations, reconstruction, oncoplastic procedures and robotic surgery for selected gynaecological and gastrointestinal cancers.

Two linear accelerators, treatment-planning systems and image guidance support the radiotherapy service. Central venous lines, chemo ports and PICC lines can be placed for systemic treatment. Microvascular reconstruction, voice prosthesis work and musculoskeletal oncology broaden the surgical range. Intensive care, neonatology and the NICU provide monitoring for critically ill adults and newborns, while neurology, neurosurgery and spine teams manage non-cancer conditions.

Varthur Road may be relevant for solid tumours, blood cancers, conditions requiring bone marrow transplant, neurological or spinal disease, heart problems and complex surgery. The combination of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, robotic surgery and reconstruction is particularly useful when several cancer disciplines must coordinate one plan. Liver transplantation and high-acuity services also support patients whose treatment requires prolonged inpatient and critical-care resources.
