Saudi Telecom Company (Zain Saudi Arabia), in collaboration with the Enabling Innovation Center at the Health Virtual Hospital, successfully performed 11 consecutive remote robotic surgeries using an advanced digital infrastructure equipped with low latency and high reliability. The surgeries included gastric sleeve, hysterectomy, inguinal hernia repair, and lung tumor removal, among which was the removal of the lower right lobe of the lung—the second such procedure globally performed remotely. The digital infrastructure relied on a dedicated network that ensures real-time transmission of surgical commands, images, and live video, thereby enhancing the precision and continuity of operations. This achievement demonstrates the capability of the digital network to support intricate surgical procedures and contributes to the development of digital healthcare models in line with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030.
