Pediatric Oncology Surgery

Pediatric oncology surgery is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating cancers in children. Surgeons in this field perform operations to remove tumors, take biopsies, or place medical devices, all tailored to the unique anatomy and health needs of young patients. The goal is to effectively treat cancer while minimizing side effects and preserving the child's future growth and development. This type of surgery often involves a team of healthcare professionals, including oncologists, radiologists, and pediatric specialists, to ensure comprehensive care for the child.
