Pediatric surgery is an independent specialty, a branch of general surgery that deals with the treatment of congenital and acquired diseases typical for childhood - from birth to the age of 18.
Children's surgical diseases and treatments have their distinctive peculiarities. This fact requires specially trained pediatric surgeons to perform the treatment of these kinds of diseases. The child often can not tell what exactly hurts him or her. It can not answer medical questions and often can not be cooperative or doesn’t have patience during the medical examination.
To achieve excellent treatment results, the pediatric surgeons work together with obstetricians , neonatologists and pediatricians, thus they provide the best opportunities for children in need of surgical help.
There is a wide variety of kinds of diseases in pediatric surgery scope. For example: newborn (abnormalities of the digestive and urogenital tract, abnormalities of lung and heart, abnormalities of the musculoskeletal system), childhood cancers, acquired emergency diseases (neonatal ileus and peritonitis, acute appendicitis, isolated or combined trauma, purulent lung process, parenchymal organs diseases, inflammatory bone diseases), hernia, and testis diseases.
Performing operation on a child requires not only finesse and dexterity, not only general knowledge and special training. It is much more than that. It is an ongoing learning process and requires deep dedication, profound understanding of child's soul, honest and friendly contact with children. Operation of a child requires a well-trained and well-organized team - surgeons, anesthesiologist, resuscitator, operational and anesthesiology nurses.
Children are looked after by teams of qualified, competent professionals in clinics and departments.
