Outcomes of Thoracic Surgery in Pediatric Patients: A Single-Center Experience From Al Ribat University Hospital, Sudan
Congenital anomalies, particularly EA/TEF and congenital lobar emphysema, are the dominant indications for pediatric thoracic surgery in our center. Both EA/TEF and congenital lobar emphysema and tumor conditions carry the highest mortality. Mortality among neonates with complex congenital defects remains high. The findings emphasize the need for enhanced perioperative support, improved neonatal care, and strengthened pediatric surgical services.
