Little Fadi screamed in agony, begging the doctors to remove the large shard of metal embedded deep in his skull.
The Syrian boy, 3, was struck by the two-inch piece of shrapnel when Russian jets bombed his hometown of Gharnatah, Homs, on Sunday.
The horrifying footage of Fadi's ordeal is being held up by doctors in Syria as proof that Russian jets are killing and maiming innocent civilians.
Moscow said its warplanes carried out three strikes on 'terrorist' buildings on Homs the day Fadi was struck down, including an ISIS command post near the city of Rastan where he lives.
The Kremlin insists their planes are fitted with highly accurate weapons, but there are fears the jets are firing out-dated cluster munitions which raise the risk of collateral damage.
Fadi was rushed to a nearby field hospital in Rastan, the Syrian city which has been pounded by Moscow's warplanes for a week. But Western governments claim there is little to no ISIS presence there.
Gruesome footage from the makeshift facility showed the young boy - his hair matted with blood -writhing on the slab of wood being used as an operating table.
Two men wearing white latex gloves held him down on the table but every time they went for the shard, Fadi recoiled in fear.
The Rastan Media Centre, which broadcast the video of Fadi, told MailOnline that his injury was so severe - and the makeshift facility so poor - that the doctors there did not know what to do.
Eventually they took him to the Hospital of Martyr Sauod in Homs where surgeons spent two-and-a-half hours removing the coarse chunk of metal from his head.
Miraculously, he survived but the shock to his head has left him with a haematoma - swelling underneath skin tissue caused by damage to the brain - a hospital spokesman told MailOnline.
He said Fadi is being cared for in the Intensive Care Unit where he was due to have CT scan yesterday. A message on the hospital's Facebook today said that Fadi had been discharged.
Fadi's family, who agreed to share the images of his progress with MailOnline, are by his side in hospital but are said to be too grief-stricken and angry to comment on his life-threatening injuries.
