General Pediatric Surgery Department

The General Pediatric Surgery Department of the Children's National Medical Center provides planned and emergency surgical care to children from the newborn period up to 18 years of age.

We perform a wide range of operations — from the most common to complex clinical cases — ensuring safe treatment and a quick recovery for the child.

Main areas

• planned and emergency pediatric surgery
• abdominal surgery
• treatment of acute surgical conditions (appendicitis, bowel obstruction, etc.)
• hernia repair (inguinal, umbilical)
• treatment of purulent and inflammatory soft tissue diseases
• surgical treatment of growths and tumors
• outpatient surgery and minor procedures
• post-operative patient care

What makes the department unique

The department combines a classical school of surgery with modern approaches to treating children.

We strive to use the gentlest possible treatment methods, including minimally invasive techniques whenever possible.

Each child is assessed individually, taking into account their age, condition and the specifics of the disease.

The department works closely with the Center's diagnostic services and other specialists, which makes it possible to diagnose quickly and start treatment without delay.

How treatment works

1. Consultation — examination by a pediatric surgeon and a preliminary diagnosis
2. Diagnostics — ultrasound, lab tests and other examinations if needed
3. Decision — choosing the treatment strategy (observation or surgery)
4. Surgery — the operation is performed in a modern setting
5. Post-operative period — inpatient observation and monitoring of the child's condition
6. Discharge and follow-up — recommendations and follow-up visits if needed
