Operating rooms separated by oceans moved as one, as doctors carried out live robotic surgeries across 12,034.92 km. The September 23 feat set the record for the longest distance recorded between a surgeon and a patient during a robotic operation.

The procedures linked Jaber Al-Ahmad Hospital in Kuwait with Hospital Cruz Vermelha in Brazil, using advanced robotic systems running over a secure, high-bandwidth international network. The surgeries were performed in near real time.
