Ongoing Research & Clinical Interests

• HoLEP outcomes in large-volume BPH
• Laparoscopic uro-oncology in Indian patient populations
• Buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty outcomes in long-segment strictures

A patient with a 180 g prostate and urinary retention deemed unfit for open prostatectomy due to cardiac comorbidity underwent HoLEP under Dr. Manohar's care, achieving complete urinary decompression and voiding improvement with only 36-hour hospitalisation.

A patient with a 6 cm renal mass underwent laparoscopic radical nephrectomy with extended lymph node dissection, achieving clear surgical margins and negative nodes at final histopathology with two-day post-operative discharge.

• Confidence in Laser Urology: BPH and stone surgery patients highlight Dr. Manohar's expertise in holmium laser techniques, resulting in minimal blood loss and rapid post-operative recovery.
• Thorough Cancer Surgery Planning: Uro-oncology patients commend his multidisciplinary approach and detailed pre-surgical staging before major cancer procedures.
• Accessible Post-operative Support: Patients note his responsive follow-up approach and clear discharge instructions following urological surgery.

Patient-Centred Care

Dr. Manohar T takes an individualised, minimally invasive-first approach to urological disease management. He carefully evaluates each patient's tumour characteristics, prostate size, stone burden, and overall fitness before selecting the optimal surgical technique. He conducts pre-operative tumour board reviews for all uro-oncology cases and involves patients and families in all surgical decisions, with clear explanation of expected functional outcomes.

Technology & Innovation

Dr. Manohar employs holmium laser platforms for both HoLEP and lithotripsy, laparoscopic systems for kidney and prostate cancer surgery, flexible ureteroscopy for upper tract endourology, and urodynamics for objective assessment of bladder and urethral function. He uses buccal mucosal grafts for complex long-segment urethral reconstruction following stricture disease.
