King Faisal Specialized Hospital and Research Centre successfully performed the first single-port robotic liver transplant on a six-year-old child. The child's father donated a portion of his liver to save him from recurrent episodes of acute liver failure caused by Wilcott-Ralson genetic syndrome. The surgery relied on the single-port robotic technique, which resulted in reduced surgical trauma and faster recovery. The child experienced a good recovery without complications. This achievement represents a significant advancement in precise and complex surgeries for children and underscores the center's expertise, which has launched a program for robotic liver transplants, performing 165 procedures so far. It reflects the Kingdom's commitment to medical innovation and providing the highest standards of healthcare.
