Pediatric Surgery Department of Avicenna Hospitals, provides specialist treatment and surgeries within the parameters of comfort, the latest improvements in child medicine, and psychological support for the children and their families. In contrast to general surgery, this section specializes in pediatrics. The procedures employed during a child’s surgical intervention may differ from the general surgery. Our surgeons treat most types of pediatric surgical problems.

What exactly does a pediatric surgeon do?

Pediatric surgeons treat children up to the age of 16. They deal with unborn infants, as well as children and teens up until the age of 16. Pediatric surgeons are skillful at making children feel more comfortable and communicating with them. Pediatric surgeons are also concerned with the diagnosis of disorders and the post-surgery care of children. They can specialize in Prenatal, Neonatal, Trauma, and Pediatric oncology.  In short, our specialist surgeons examine and treat children with simple and complex disorders.

Prenatal

Pediatric surgery specialists collaborate with radiologists to detect abnormalities in the womb and schedule curative procedures after childbirth. Prenatal surgery, or fetal surgery, is a recent procedure that is accessible at certain bigger medical centers.

Neonatal

The correction of congenital impairments, or birth defects, in neonates is the focus of neonatal surgery.

Trauma

Trauma procedures are performed on children who have had a moderate to severe disease, including a fracture, cut, burn, or internal disease. So this is one of the primary reasons why children need intense healthcare.

Pediatric oncology

Pediatrics treat children with cancer or benign (non-malignant) abnormal cells.

Treated Pediatric Surgery Diseases

The pediatric surgery department deals with illnesses that need surgery. Furthermore, because the pediatric surgical department treats a wide range of diseases, it might frequently work with other medical departments. This department’s diseases are divided into the following categories:

Infants and children can be given general anesthesia in any situation where it is essential. Before surgery preparations, tests and examinations, and sedation applications are applied according to each patient’s age.
