Pediatric Oncology

Pediatric surgical oncology involves the surgical management of benign and malignant tumors in children. Major solid tumors include Wilms tumor (nephroblastoma), neuroblastoma, hepatoblastoma, sacrococcygeal teratoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma. Management focuses on tumor resection with clear margins while preserving organ function, coordinated closely with pediatric oncologists for pre-operative and post-operative chemotherapy regimens.
