About

Dr. Bailey Roberts is a pioneering pediatric surgeon whose work centers on minimally invasive surgical techniques for rare abdominal conditions in children. Her landmark 2019 paper, "Robotic Approach for Median Arcuate Ligament Release in Pediatrics," was the first to describe robotic-assisted MAL release in pediatric patients, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional open or laparoscopic methods for this rare cause of chronic abdominal pain. This seminal contribution has garnered 15 citations and established a new standard for treating median arcuate ligament syndrome in children. Dr. Roberts’ research demonstrates that robotic surgery can achieve the precision needed for delicate pediatric anatomy while reducing recovery times and surgical trauma. Her work bridges a critical gap in pediatric surgical oncology and vascular compression syndromes, providing young patients with safer, more effective treatment options. By translating adult robotic techniques to the pediatric population, Dr. Roberts has opened new frontiers in child-specific surgical care, earning recognition as a leader in advancing robotic-assisted procedures for rare pediatric conditions.
