About

Rahul Saxena is a pioneering paediatric surgeon whose work centres on the adoption and refinement of robotic surgery for children. His landmark paper, “Robotic surgery in paediatric patients” (2019, 12 citations), documents the initial experience with the da Vinci surgical system at his institution, providing a crucial stepwise guide that has helped other centres safely introduce this technology. Beyond this foundational work, Saxena has contributed to the broader literature on minimally invasive techniques in paediatric urology and general surgery, focusing on improving outcomes for complex congenital conditions. His research is notable for bridging the gap between adult robotic surgery and the unique anatomical and physiological challenges of paediatric patients. Although his citation count is still growing, Saxena’s practical, protocol-driven approach has made him a key voice in the global conversation on robotic paediatric surgery, and his work continues to influence training and implementation strategies in hospitals worldwide.
