Our Neonatal and Pediatric Surgery Services

Galaxy Hospital offers a comprehensive range of surgical services for infants, children, and adolescents. Some of our key services include:

Neonatal Surgery

Neonatal surgery involves the surgical care of newborns, particularly those born with congenital conditions or who require urgent surgical intervention. Our services include:

• Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) Repair: A condition where a hole in the diaphragm allows abdominal organs to move into the chest cavity, affecting lung development. Our surgeons are skilled in performing this delicate surgery to correct the defect.
• Esophageal Atresia and Tracheoesophageal Fistula (EA/TEF) Repair: These congenital conditions affect the esophagus and trachea, requiring immediate surgical intervention. Our team is experienced in repairing these defects to ensure proper feeding and breathing functions.
• Gastroschisis and Omphalocele Repair: These conditions involve abdominal organs protruding outside the body. Our surgeons specialize in repairing these defects to protect the organs and promote healthy development.
• Neonatal Intestinal Surgery: Conditions such as intestinal atresia or necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) require prompt surgical care. Our team is equipped to perform complex intestinal surgeries to ensure the best outcomes for your newborn.

Pediatric Surgery

Pediatric surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures for children and adolescents. Our services include:

• Appendectomy: Removal of the appendix in cases of appendicitis. We offer minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures to reduce recovery time and minimize scarring.
• Hernia Repair: Pediatric hernias, such as inguinal or umbilical hernias, are common and require surgical correction. Our surgeons perform these repairs with precision to ensure quick recovery.
• Pediatric Tumor Surgery: Our team is skilled in the surgical removal of benign and malignant tumors in children. We use advanced techniques to minimize damage to healthy tissues and ensure the best possible outcomes.
• Congenital Anomaly Corrections: We provide surgical corrections for various congenital anomalies, including cleft lip and palate, hypospadias, and congenital heart defects. Our goal is to improve function and appearance while enhancing your child’s quality of life.
• Minimally Invasive Surgery: Whenever possible, we utilize minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopy and thoracoscopy. These procedures involve smaller incisions, resulting in less pain, reduced scarring, and faster recovery times.

• Safety and Comfort: We prioritize the safety and comfort of our young patients. Our surgical team is trained to work with children, using child-friendly techniques and equipment to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience.

• Preoperative Preparation: We prepare children and their families for surgery through education and support. Our child life specialists use age-appropriate explanations, play therapy, and tours of the surgical area to reduce anxiety and help children feel more at ease.
• Postoperative Care and Follow-Up: After surgery, we provide comprehensive postoperative care, including monitoring in our specialized pediatric units. We also offer detailed follow-up plans to ensure your child’s recovery is on track.
