Fuad Alkhoury

About

Dr. Fuad Alkhoury is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work centers on the safe and effective introduction of robotic surgery into children's healthcare. His major contributions focus on adapting advanced, minimally invasive techniques—including single-port and robotic-assisted approaches—for complex pediatric conditions. Notably, his 2016 study on single-port robotic cholecystectomy (26 citations) demonstrated the feasibility of this approach in children, while his 2019 work on robotic median arcuate ligament release (15 citations) was among the first published cases in pediatric patients. Dr. Alkhoury has also advanced care for adolescent inguinal hernia repair (14 citations) and addressed rare conditions like idiopathic duodenal stricture. His 2023 paper on safely introducing robotic surgery in a free-standing children’s hospital (5 citations) underscores his commitment to procedural innovation and patient safety. Through these efforts, Dr. Alkhoury has established himself as a leader in pediatric robotic surgery, expanding treatment options and improving outcomes for young patients.
