This special issue belongs to the section “Pediatric Surgery“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As Guest Editor of the Special Issue entitled “Clinical Advances and Perspectives on Neonatal Surgery”, it is with great pleasure that I invite you to submit your works to the journal Children.
As we all know, the advancement of diagnostic techniques and surgical methods has enabled many malformations and neonatal conditions to be properly managed. The technical surgical aspects have been implemented together with a more comprehensive knowledge of fetal and neonatal physiology, thus allowing for substantially improved outcomes for many neonatal surgical conditions.
Considering the success and popularity of the Special Issue “Clinical Advances and Perspectives on Neonatal Surgery” previously published in the journal Children (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/children/special_issues/Advances_Neonatal_Surgery), we are now releasing a Second Issue aims to collect and share the most recent clinical and research advancements in the treatment of those malformations that require prompt and skilled surgical expertise. In this Special Issue of Children, senior investigators are welcome to invite mentees and colleagues to co-author submissions under their supervision. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Paola Midrio
Guest Editor
