Minimally Access Surgery (MAS) offers benefits like shorter hospital stays and better outcomes, but requires caution due to its learning curve. MAS is increasingly used in pediatric surgery in India for various conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Minimally Access Surgery (MAS) has seen significant growth over the last two decades.
  • MAS presents a steep learning curve and potential for complications if not approached cautiously.
  • Despite challenges, MAS offers advantages such as shorter hospital stays, reduced analgesic use, and improved cosmetic results.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a concise overview of current MAS procedures in pediatric surgery.
  • To highlight the impact and evolving applications of MAS in managing pediatric surgical conditions.
  • To emphasize the need for ongoing innovation, validation, and institutional audit in MAS.

Main Methods:

  • Review of established and emerging Minimally Access Surgery procedures in pediatric care.
