Pediatric Surgery
The pediatric surgery branch is responsible for diagnosing diseases that require surgical intervention on the child's body in the period from birth to the age of eighteen and performing the operation within the methods developed on this diagnosis. The scope of pediatric surgery methodically covers preoperative and postoperative. Thanks to the imaging and intervention methods developed in recent years, interventions performed in the womb have also been included in this branch.

The main reason for the emergence of pediatric surgery and creating a separate discipline from adult surgery is that the body is in constant growth and change until the age of eighteen. Doctors specializing in pediatric surgery should determine the details of the intervention to be applied according to the age of the children and act accordingly.

Due to the changes and growth in the bodies of the patients in the age range it is interested in, the diseases that this surgery branch deals with are also many. Examples of these are congenital anomalies, shortness of breath, hernias, testicular diseases, neck curvatures, tumors, injuries and traumas due to environmental effects. Due to the wide scope of surgical intervention, doctors working in the field of pediatric surgery need to gain serious expertise.
