A major medical breakthrough was achieved in Riyadh with the successful completion of the world’s first pediatric robotic liver lobe transplant performed on an eight-year-old child.
Due to the child’s small size and the limited surgical space, a highly customized plan was implemented,
including the precise repositioning of robotic access points to accommodate the case.
This pioneering procedure represents a significant step forward in pediatric robotic surgery, offering unprecedented precision and fewer complications.
It also sets the stage for the future development of robotic systems tailored specifically for children.
The child made a full recovery and was discharged just two weeks after the surgery, underscoring the efficiency and success of this cutting-edge approach.
