Neria Leiter, who was critically injured in a vehicular terror attack, has been released from Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem after more than a month of intensive care. He has been transferred to a neurological rehabilitation facility for further treatment of head injuries. Leiter is breathing independently but remains unconscious.
Upon his arrival at Shaare Zedek's trauma room, Leiter was in critical condition and faced immediate life-threatening danger for many days. Extensive medical teams, including trauma, neurosurgery, and intensive care specialists, fought for his life, providing urgent, life-saving treatments. During his hospitalization, he underwent several significant neurosurgical and orthopedic surgeries.
For several weeks, Leiter was hospitalized in the General Intensive Care Unit under the management of Prof. Philip Levin, sedated and ventilated. After his condition stabilized and he was no longer in immediate mortal danger, he was moved to the Neurological-Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit, managed by Dr. Stefan Mausbach and directly treated by Dr. Evgeny Karpov, a senior neurosurgeon specializing in trauma and intensive care.
Throughout his stay, Leiter's family received extensive support from the medical center's teams, including medical staff, nurses, health professionals, and social workers, who provided emotional and logistical assistance. The medical teams highlighted the family's inspiring resilience and expressed hopes for Neria's full and swift recovery.
The Leiter family expressed gratitude to the Shaare Zedek medical teams for their dedicated and exceptional care. They requested privacy at this time and asked the public to continue praying for Neria's recovery.
