Dr. N. Bhuvaneshwar Rao is widely regarded as one of the most experienced and accomplished pediatric surgeons in the state of Telangana, with three decades of clinical experience built substantially at Niloufer Hospital for Women & Children, Hyderabad — one of the region's principal referral centres for pediatric care — where he served as Faculty and Head of the Department of Pediatric Surgery for 29 years. As HOD, he oversaw a department handling close to 400 surgeries a month, among the highest-volume pediatric surgery units in the country.
Over this time, his practice has spanned the full range of pediatric surgical need: newborn and congenital conditions, general pediatric surgery, and reconstructive pediatric urology, with particular depth in the surgical correction of hypospadias. He personally performs around 70 surgeries a month in the private sector, making him one of the busiest practicing pediatric surgeons in the state.
He now consults across hospitals in Hyderabad and Karimnagar, bringing the same expert care into private practice closer to families across the region.
Hypospadias repair is Dr. NB Rao's principal area of surgical focus, alongside the broader field of pediatric urology — including PUJ obstruction, undescended testis, hernia, and hydrocele — built over 29 years of high-volume practice at a leading government children's hospital.
A comprehensive pediatric surgery practice with particular depth in pediatric urology, newborn surgical conditions, and thoracic surgery.
A birth condition where the urinary opening doesn't form at the tip of the penis. Corrective surgery restores normal anatomy and urinary function, typically before school age.
A blockage where the kidney meets the ureter, restricting urine drainage. Surgical repair (pyeloplasty) relieves the obstruction and protects long-term kidney function.
A procedure that reimplants the ureter into the bladder to correct vesicoureteral reflux or a poorly draining ureter. It protects the kidneys from recurrent infection and long-term scarring.
One or both testes fail to descend into the scrotum before birth. Timely surgery (orchidopexy) lowers the long-term risk to fertility and testicular health.
A fluid-filled swelling around the testicle, common in infants. Cases that don't resolve on their own are corrected with a short, low-risk day-care procedure.
A bulge where abdominal contents push through a weak spot in the groin or abdomen. Pediatric hernia repair is a common, routine day-care surgery.
Correction of structural abnormalities present at birth, from minor anomalies to complex reconstructions. Early evaluation gives newborns the best long-term outcomes.
Blockages in a newborn's intestine — from causes such as intestinal atresia, malrotation, or meconium ileus — usually presenting within the first days of life. Emergency surgery relieves the obstruction and restores normal bowel continuity.
A group of birth defects affecting how the anus and rectum form. Staged surgical reconstruction restores normal bowel function over a child's first months.
Missing nerve cells in part of the large intestine cause severe constipation or blockage in infants. Surgery removes the affected segment and restores normal bowel movement.
A congenital connection between the food pipe and windpipe, often paired with esophageal atresia, that prevents normal feeding and breathing in newborns. Early surgical repair separates the two passages and restores normal swallowing.
A birth defect where abdominal organs push through an opening in the diaphragm into the chest, affecting lung development. Surgical repair after the newborn is stabilized closes the defect and lets the lungs function normally.
Removal of a diseased or malformed lung segment, commonly for congenital lung lesions or localized infection. Children generally recover well, as the remaining healthy lung tissue expands to compensate.
Minimally invasive, keyhole techniques used across a range of conditions. Smaller incisions generally mean less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery.
A segment of intestine telescopes into an adjoining part, causing a bowel obstruction most common in infants and toddlers. Prompt treatment — often a non-surgical reduction, with surgery if that fails — prevents serious bowel injury.
Inflammation of the appendix that needs prompt surgical removal to prevent rupture. Pediatric appendectomy is one of the most common emergency surgeries in children.
A congenital cystic dilation of the bile duct that can cause jaundice, abdominal pain, or recurrent infections if untreated. Surgical removal of the cyst with biliary reconstruction is the standard, curative treatment.
A blockage that prevents the normal passage of intestinal contents, arising from causes such as adhesions, hernias, or bowel anomalies. Treatment ranges from conservative management to surgical correction depending on the cause.
