About

Mohammed Y. Al-Naami is a pioneering figure in robotic surgery, with a career dedicated to advancing minimally invasive techniques in general and pediatric surgery. His research focuses on the progressive implementation of robotic systems, demonstrating a methodical transition from simple to complex procedures. A key contribution is his work on robotic-assisted anorectal pull-through for anorectal malformations, a landmark study (22 citations) that established the feasibility and precision of robotic approaches in delicate pediatric reconstructions. Al-Naami’s broader impact is evident in his comprehensive review of 129 robotic general surgery cases (15 citations), which documented significant improvements in operative times and setup efficiency with experience, providing a roadmap for surgical teams adopting this technology. He has also explored niche applications, such as the robotic management of superior mesenteric artery syndrome (3 citations), showcasing the versatility of robotic platforms for rare conditions. Through his methodical, outcomes-driven research, Al-Naami has helped define best practices for integrating robotics into surgical training and practice, making him a respected authority in the field’s evolution.
