Paediatric Surgery

Paediatric Surgery

Paediatric surgery involves the diagnosis, surgical treatment, and post-operative care for children with congenital or acquired conditions. It addresses a range of issues, including developmental, inflammatory, neoplastic, and traumatic conditions, from the fetal stage to adolescence. Unlike other surgical specialties, it is defined by the patient’s age rather than a specific condition.

A paediatric surgeon specializes in surgical care for children, from birth to adolescence. They address a range of unique conditions, different from those treated by general surgeons. Paediatric surgeons perform surgery for:
