Pediatric Surgical Oncology
Depending on your child’s type of cancer, surgery can play a critical role in their treatment. At Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), the experts on our pediatric surgical oncology team have extensive experience in every type of cancer that requires surgery, including neuroblastoma, brain tumors and bone cancer.
Because we have treated so many children, our pediatric oncology surgeons are deeply familiar with everything that can happen during a complex surgery. Having a world-class surgical oncology team enables us at the Cancer Center to provide the best possible care for your child.
We work together to gain a thorough understanding of your child’s condition and then create a long-term treatment plan. Every step of the way, we will be by your side.
