From birth to the age of sixteen - there is a lot to do in surgery. That's why the spectrum of pediatric surgery is so vast: from general surgery to visceral and thoracic surgery to vascular surgery and plastic surgery, pediatric surgeons care for their young patients.
From congenital defects such as skeletal malformations and disorders of the central nervous system to tumors and hernias: When children fall ill, several organs are often affected. That's why pediatric surgeons always have the whole body in mind.
