SS Innovations International (NASDAQ: SSII), a developer of surgical robotic technologies, has expanded its international footprint with the launch of Sri Lanka's first robotic cardiac surgery program at Kings Hospital Colombo, powered by its SSi Mantra 3.0 surgical robotic system. The program began with a robotic-assisted left internal mammary artery takedown performed by company founder and Chairman Dr. Sudhir Srivastava alongside Kings Hospital cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Rajitha DeSilva. The hospital reportedly completed more than 25 robotic procedures within the first three weeks, demonstrating rapid adoption of the technology.
The launch adds to SS Innovations' international expansion as the company reported 224 cumulative SSi Mantra installations across 12 countries at the end of the second quarter of 2026. Quarterly revenue increased 39% year over year to $13.9 million, while robotic procedures rose 143% to 2,528. These figures highlight increased utilization of its installed systems and potential opportunities for recurring revenue from surgical instruments and consumables. For readers tracking health sector innovation, this matters because cardiac surgery is among the most complex and costly surgical specialties; a cost-effective robotic platform that enables more hospitals to offer minimally invasive cardiac procedures could widen patient access and reduce recovery times.
SS Innovations is also pursuing broader market access, with U.S. FDA clearance targeted for the first quarter of 2027 and European CE marking targeted for the end of 2026. Regulatory milestones in these major markets would significantly expand the company's addressable market and could intensify competition in the surgical robotics industry, where high system costs have historically limited adoption. The company's strategy to make robotic surgery affordable and accessible to a larger segment of the global population positions it as a notable player in the evolving health technology landscape.
