Pediatric surgery specializes in the surgical treatment of infants, children, and adolescents. This field is focused on addressing a wide range of congenital and acquired conditions, including birth defects, injuries, tumors, and other disorders that require surgical intervention. Pediatric surgeons are trained to provide comprehensive care for pediatric patients, considering their unique anatomical, physiological, and emotional needs.

Pediatric surgeons perform various types of surgeries, including but not limited to:

• Surgical removal of the foreskin of the penis, often performed for cultural, religious, or medical reasons.
• Hernia Repair: Surgical correction of hernias, which occur when an organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall.
• Appendectomy: Surgical repair of congenital anomalies such as cleft lip and palate, congenital heart defects, gastrointestinal malformations, and others.
• Congenital Malformation Correction: Fluid-filled sacs in the breast that are usually benign and can be drained if they cause discomfort.
• Gynecomastia: An enlargement of breast tissue in males, which can be caused by hormonal imbalances or other medical conditions.
• Orthopedic Surgery: Procedures to correct musculoskeletal disorders and injuries, such as limb deformities, clubfoot, fractures, and scoliosis.

• Urological Surgery: Surgeries to address congenital anomalies of the genitourinary system, such as hypospadias repair, vesicoureteral reflux correction, and urinary tract reconstruction.
• Oncologic Surgery: Surgical treatment of childhood cancers, including tumor resections, lymph node dissections, and other procedures as part of a multidisciplinary cancer treatment approach.
• Gastrointestinal Surgery: Procedures for conditions like pyloric stenosis, intussusception, Hirschsprung's disease, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
