Pediatric Onco surgery
The goal of pediatric cancer surgery is to remove as much of the tumor as possible, without injuring or removing any adjacent structures. Surgeons may remove just the tumor, or even a small portion of the tumor, leaving a scar where the incision was made.
Pediatric hematologists/oncologists diagnose, treat, and manage children and teens with the following: Cancers including leukemias, lymphomas, brain tumors, bone tumors, and solid tumors. Diseases of blood cells including disorders of white cells, red cells, and platelets. Bleeding and clotting disorders.
