Pediatric Surgery

Pediatric surgeons specialize in surgical treatment of congenital and acquired conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. Their expertise includes procedures addressing birth defects, tumors, trauma, and infections affecting various organs and systems.

They perform surgeries such as hernia repairs, correction of congenital malformations (e.g., cleft lip/palate, intestinal atresia), appendectomies, and operations for complex conditions like Hirschsprung’s disease and pediatric tumors. Pediatric surgeons carefully assess patients preoperatively and coordinate multidisciplinary care to optimize outcomes.

Postoperative care focuses on pain management, wound healing, and rehabilitation tailored to children’s physiological and developmental needs. Their goal is to ensure safe surgical intervention with minimal impact on growth and long-term function.
