Machine-translated · View original
A pediatric surgery lab that advances surgery gentle on children's bodies, along with research on it.

AboutAbout the lab
To support the future of children
The Pediatric Surgery lab treats diseases of organs in the neck, chest (excluding the heart), and abdomen by surgery in children from newborns to junior high school students, and also conducts research.
Under the motto "To Support the Future of Children," the lab believes that minimally invasive surgery, which does not hinder growth and development and puts little strain on the body, is especially necessary for children.
Many cases of liver and biliary diseases gather at the lab, including from around Aichi Prefecture, and it pursues treatment and basic research on conditions such as biliary atresia.
Pediatric Surgery has so far conducted research on cancer testing using urinary tumor markers, jointly with Hitachi, Ltd.
