100 Robot-assisted Surgeries Are Performed At Kuwait Hospital

In Kuwait, the Jaber Al-Ahmad Hospital has already performed over 100 robot-assisted surgeries, with the number expected to rise to 200 by the end of the year.

Among the medical procedures performed at Jaber Al-Ahmad Hospital were obesity, colon, abdominal wall, hernia and bladder operations, according to Dr. Sulaiman Al-Mazidi.

Based on the great support of the Ministry of Health, his surgical department boasts that it uses endoscopies and robots in surgical operations.

The achievement is in line with Kuwait's vision to overhaul the health system and provide citizens with the best care in the world.

Dr. Maher Al-Chaar, Co-Medical Director of Bariatric Surgery at St. Luke's University Hospital in Pennsylvania, said he visited Kuwait to perform complicated robot-assisted surgeries.
