The Pediatric Surgery Department at Hôtel-Dieu de France Hospital has achieved a new medical advancement, performing the removal of an adrenal tumor in a child.
Utilizing Endoscopic Technique
The procedure was performed using retroperitoneal endoscopy, which, according to a statement, is a highly specialized surgical intervention that allows direct access to the adrenal gland without the need for an abdominal incision.
Achievement by Dr. Marianne Alam
The hospital announced in a statement that “this delicate intervention was successfully performed by Dr. Marianne Alam, under the supervision of Professor Nabil Diab, thanks to specialized surgical expertise and multidisciplinary care tailored to the specifics of pediatric surgery.”
Advanced Surgical Approach
It added: “This advanced surgical approach offers several benefits for the child, most notably reducing post-operative pain and accelerating functional recovery.”
Additionally, it “minimizes scarring and shortens the hospital stay, with the possibility of returning home within 48 hours of this major surgical intervention.”
The statement concluded: “This step reflects Hôtel-Dieu de France Hospital’s continuous commitment to innovation in the surgical field.”
It continued, “In addition, it reflects the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques and the improvement of the quality of care provided to pediatric patients according to the highest international standards.”
