Paediatrics Surgery

Pediatrics focuses on the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents, diagnosing and treating illnesses, injuries, and developmental disorders, while also providing preventive care and vaccinations.

Paediatric surgery is a specialized branch of medicine focusing on surgical care for infants, children, and adolescents. It addresses congenital anomalies (birth defects), traumatic injuries, childhood cancers, and digestive disorders. Common procedures include appendectomies, hernia repairs, cleft lip/palate corrections, and organ transplants. Surgeons use minimally invasive techniques (laparoscopy) tailored for small bodies, ensuring faster recovery. The field requires child-friendly approaches to reduce anxiety and pain. Collaboration with neonatologists, oncologists, and anaesthetists ensures holistic care. Paediatric surgeons play a vital role in correcting deformities early, enabling children to lead healthy lives.
