About

Dr. Maryam Al-Sulaiti is a leading surgical oncologist whose research has significantly advanced the understanding and management of rare abdominal tumors in the Middle East. Her landmark study on gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) in Qatar, which has garnered 40 citations, provided the first comprehensive epidemiological data for the region, detailing clinical presentation, management strategies, and long-term outcomes for patients treated over nearly two decades. This foundational work established critical benchmarks for GIST care in the Arabian Gulf. More recently, Dr. Al-Sulaiti has been at the forefront of evaluating modern surgical techniques. Her comparative analysis of open, laparoscopic, and robotic adrenalectomy approaches (16 citations) offers vital insights into the safety and efficacy of minimally invasive surgery for adrenal tumors, guiding surgeons in selecting optimal treatment pathways. By bridging the gap between global surgical trends and regional clinical realities, Dr. Al-Sulaiti’s work has directly improved patient outcomes and shaped surgical protocols in Qatar. Her contributions are particularly valuable for researchers and trainees interested in surgical oncology, health disparities, and the adoption of advanced technologies in specialized surgical care.
