Pediatric Cardiac Surgery

Pediatric cardiac surgery is a specialized area of surgery that focuses on correcting heart problems in children, including newborns. These issues may be congenital (present at birth) or acquired. Surgeons perform operations to repair structural defects, improve blood flow, or replace damaged valves to ensure the child's heart functions properly. The goal is to enhance the child's quality of life and overall health. Pediatric cardiac surgeons work closely with a team of pediatricians and nurses to provide comprehensive care tailored to the unique needs of young patients.
