In a groundbreaking surgical collaboration, a team of surgeons in Lithuania successfully performed the first single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) operation under the remote telemonitoring guidance of a highly experienced surgeon from Spain.The Lithuanian surgical team, comprising skilled bariatric surgeons, meticulously prepared for the SADI-S operation under the remote guidance of their Spanish proctor. Utilizing video conferencing and real-time communication, the mentor provided step-by-step instructions, shared insights, and addressed any concerns during the procedure. The mentor's extensive experience and guidance ensured a safe and successful surgical outcome.This innovative approach not only demonstrates the potential of telemedicine in the field of complex bariatric surgeries but also highlights the power of international cooperation in advancing surgical techniques and patient care by using modern methods of telemedicine and proctorship.
