About
Badr Ibrahim is a prominent otolaryngologist and researcher whose work centers on sleep surgery, particularly the application of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). His major contribution lies in systematically evaluating the safety and efficacy of TORS for base of tongue reduction, a critical procedure for patients with sleep-disordered breathing. In his highly cited 2021 meta-analysis (38 citations), Ibrahim synthesized data from 31 cohorts, demonstrating that TORS offers favorable surgical, clinical, and functional outcomes for OSAS patients. This work has helped establish evidence-based guidelines for robotic-assisted sleep surgery. Additionally, his international survey on sleep medicine practices in otolaryngology units (9 citations) provided valuable insights into global variations in care. Ibrahim’s research bridges the gap between surgical innovation and clinical practice, making him a key figure in advancing minimally invasive treatments for sleep apnea. His findings continue to influence otolaryngologists and sleep specialists seeking to improve patient outcomes through robotic surgery.
