The Paediatric Surgery department at Anadolu Medical Center provides diagnostic, preoperative, surgical and postoperative services to children aged 0 to 18 with conditions requiring surgical intervention.
Given children's greater sensitivity to pain, minimally invasive techniques are used for many surgical procedures. Paediatric surgeons aim to provide appropriate medical treatment in light of modern advances. They also take steps to ensure children's psychological comfort and painless, comfortable surgery. The availability of the safest anaesthetics and technologies means that, where necessary, general anaesthesia can be given to children and infants (for all procedures, minor and major, as well as for diagnostic examinations such as CT and MRI).

- Laparoscopic, thoracoscopic, endoscopic and cystoscopic procedures
