Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Surgery is the treatment of disease, injury or other disorders by direct physical intervention, usually with instruments. Surgery involves cutting into the skin or other organs to accomplish any of the following goals:
- further explore the condition for the purpose of diagnosis
- take a biopsy of a suspicious lump
- remove diseased tissue or organs
- remove an obstruction
- reposition structures to their normal position
- redirect channels
- transplant tissue or whole organs or electronic devices
- improve physical appearance
- Minor surgery– Some procedures that children undergo are considered minor. The recovery time is short and children return to their usual activities rapidly. These operations are most often done as an outpatient, and children can return home the same day or after an overnight hospital stay. Complications from these types of operations are rare. Examples of the most common types of minor surgery may include the following:
- placement of ear tubes
- hernia repairs
- correction of bone fractures
- removal of skin lesions
- biopsy of growths
- Major surgery – These operations most often occur on the head, neck, chest, and abdomen, and can greatly affect the way the body functions. The recovery time can be lengthy and may involve a stay in intensive care or at least several days in the hospital. There is a higher risk of complications after such operations. In children, types of major surgery may include the following:
- removal of brain tumors or other solid tumors
- correction of bone malformations of the skull and face
- repair of congenital heart disease, transplantation of organs, and repair of intestinal malformations
- correction of spinal abnormalities and treatment of injuries sustained from major blunt trauma
- Required surgery – These are procedures that need to be done to make your child’s life better in the future. An example might be having a spinal fusion to correct severe curvature of the spine. Required surgery, unlike emergency surgery, does not necessarily have to be done immediately and can allow you time to prepare your child for the experience.
- Urgent or emergency surgery – This type of surgery is done in reaction to an urgent medical condition, such as correction of a life-threatening congenital heart malformation or repair of injured internal organs after an automobile accident, or a problem such as appendicitis.
