In a remarkable medical achievement that reflects the readiness of the medical staff and the efficiency of emergency services at Mouwasat Hospital in Khobar, the surgical team led by Dr. Hossam Abter -Consultant of General Surgery, Advanced Laparoscopy, and Robotic Surgery- successfully saved the life of a patient suffering from severe abdominal and systemic poisoning caused by a large stomach wall perforation.

By the grace of God, the patient’s condition stabilized, and he was discharged from the hospital six days after surgery in good health.
