With God’s help, the medical team at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Qati fsucceeded in saving the life of a baby who was born prematurely before the natural date of birth and suffers from many health problems that were dealt with by the team of doctors in a professional and proactive manner in order to ensure the safe exit of the newborn without any health problems.

As for the retinopathy, Dr. Muhammad Abu Taqia, a consultant ophthalmologist and ophthalmologist, was called to discuss the girl’s issue and decided to inject the eye to stop the abnormal growth of blood vessels in the eye.

The girl stayed for three months under the care of the medical team in Qatif sympathy, until the consultant decided that the mother could return her newborn to her home in full health, safety, and security after being assured that she did not suffer from any problems with the brain and nervous system as a whole, or the digestive system and nutrition, and she weighs approximately two kilograms.

 This result confirms the leadership of Al-Mouwasat Hospital in the region in providing means of care for children and providing full moral support to parents due to the difficulties they face during this stage. Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Qatif receives many cases of low weight and premature infants.

The procedure involved the precise embolization of the arteries feeding the aneurysmal lesion, which resulted in:

  • Complete cessation of bleeding 
  • Stabilization of the patient’s condition 
  • Safe discharge from the hospital after noticeable improvement 

Another Success: Treating a Complex Case of Acute Venous Thrombosis 

In a related achievement, the hospital recorded another successful intervention for a patient suffering from acute thrombosis in the pelvic and lower limb veins, a condition that poses serious risks if not managed promptly. 

Using the latest interventional radiology technologies, the medical team performed catheter-directed venous thrombectomy, which contributed to:

Mouwasat Hospital in Riyadh received a patient referred from another hospital in the city who was suffering from rectal bleeding and a suspected bowel obstruction caused by an advanced cancerous tumor located in the upper rectum. Following an urgent assessment, the patient was admitted for the necessary laboratory tests and imaging studies. 

Evaluation of the Rectal Tumor

After reviewing the diagnostic results, the medical team decided to proceed with a surgical intervention led by: Dr. Ahmed Abdel Fattah Habib – Consultant of General Surgery & Oncology, with the assistance of Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Hindawi – Specialist in General Surgery.

The patient was then prepared for a precise laparoscopic surgical procedure targeting the affected section of the colon and rectum.

The entire procedure was performed using advanced laparoscopic surgical techniques and included:

  • Resection of the lower sigmoid colon and upper rectum
