About

Dr. M. M. Shoukri is a pioneering figure in the field of robot‑assisted pediatric surgery, with a focused research agenda on the safety, feasibility, and expanding applications of minimally invasive techniques in children. His landmark study, “Robot‐Assisted Pediatric Surgery: How Far Can We Go?” (2010), which has garnered 76 citations, systematically evaluated 144 procedures using the da Vinci Surgical System. This work demonstrated that robotic surgery is not only safe and feasible in a pediatric population but also opened the door to more complex interventions previously considered too delicate for conventional laparoscopy. Dr. Shoukri’s contributions have been instrumental in establishing evidence‑based guidelines for pediatric robotic surgery, influencing both surgical practice and training curricula worldwide. His research continues to push the boundaries of what is possible, inspiring a new generation of surgeons to explore the potential of robotics in improving outcomes for the youngest patients.
