Minimally invasive techniques, including laparoscopic techniques, robotic surgery, endoscopic treatment and interventional therapy, have been widely applied in pediatric surgery, especially in the treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. These techniques reduce surgical trauma, facilitate faster recovery, and improve patient outcomes. However, skillfully combining and applying various minimally invasive techniques to handle complex situations and selecting the correct children to use the appropriate minimally invasive techniques remains challenging in clinical practice.
This Research Topic aims to explore the application value of minimally invasive techniques in the treatment of GI conditions in children, with a particular focus on the innovative and combined application of these techniques. It seeks to highlight clinical case studies to demonstrate the effectiveness of minimally invasive techniques in addressing complex situations. Utilizing minimally invasive techniques to solve complex problems in GI conditions is of vital importance for reducing the number of operatibe procedures for children and minimizing physical and mental trauma. This special topic also covers the application and innovation of minimally invasive techniques in treating common GI conditions in children.
To gather further insights in the application of minimally invasive techniques in pediatric digestive system diseases, we welcome articles covering, but not limited to, the following topics:
• Application of laparoscopic and robotic surgeries in pediatric GI conditions
• Innovative treatment processes for complex GI diseases
• Combined application of multiple minimally invasive techniques
• Innovation and development of minimally invasive techniques
We welcome original research, clinical studies, case reports, reviews, and mini-reviews from the fields of pediatric surgery, minimally invasive surgery, and medical devices. We strongly encourage submissions focusing on the clinical practice and application value of minimally invasive techniques.
