Overview
Pediatric Minimally Invasive Surgery
Surgeons of the We Care India of pediatric surgery offer a wide range of minimally invasive pediatric surgery procedures for children of all ages, ranging from tiny premature babies to maturing teenagers.
The wide range of minimally invasive procedures includes laparoscopic and thoracoscopic operations for conditions in the lungs, esophagus, diaphragm, chest and abdomen, as well as congenital anomalies.
Children, especially babies, present special challenges in surgery because their small size and their responses to illness and surgery. Our pediatric surgeons provide consultation and comprehensive inpatient and outpatient surgical care specifically designed for infants and children.
Today, minimally invasive surgery, in which our surgeons perform operations through Band-Aid-size incisions, has replaced many of the former large-incision operations. A tiny video camera or scope is placed through one small incision, and miniature instruments are passed through other tiny incisions or openings in the body. The surgeon can make repairs by watching a monitor and moving the instruments.
The advantages of this method are numerous. There is less pain, faster recovery and minimized scarring. Hospital stays are shorter than ever before.
Advantages for minimally invasive procedures include : -
- smaller incisions translating to less post-operative pain
- more rapid recovery resulting in shorter hospital stays
- less overall use of pain medicine
- less scar tissue
- cosmetic benefits
Not all patients are candidates for minimally invasive surgery; they must first be seen and evaluated. Kindly send your child's medical details to info@wecareindia.com
