About

Dr. Mustafa Mohamed is a pioneering orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical precision in pelvic trauma care. His primary research focus is the application of robotic technology to improve outcomes in complex pelvic fracture fixation. Dr. Mohamed’s major contribution lies in his prospective evaluation of robotic-arm assistance versus traditional fluoroscopy for iliosacral and transsacral screw placement. His landmark 2023 study, which has already garnered 7 citations, demonstrated that robotic guidance significantly reduces the risk of unplanned cortical or neuroforaminal violations—a critical complication in pelvic surgery. This work, conducted as a single-surgeon, single-North American institution study, provides compelling early evidence for the safety and accuracy of robotic systems in a field where millimeter precision is paramount. By directly comparing these techniques, Dr. Mohamed is helping to define a new standard of care for pelvic fracture management. His research is not only technically rigorous but also clinically impactful, offering a clear path toward reducing iatrogenic injury in one of orthopedics’ most challenging procedures.
