Pediatric cancer is a major global health challenge, with an estimated 400,000 new cases diagnosed each year. Access to specialized surgical care particularly limited in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where shortage of trained pediatric oncologists exacerbates treatment disparities. This study aimed develop comprehensive curriculum for oncology enhance training improve patient outcomes. A mixed-method approach was adopted the development implementation curriculum. consensus-driven...
Thyroid gland malignancies are rare in pediatric patients (0.7% of tumors); only 1.8% observed aged <20 years, with a higher prevalence recorded women and adolescents. Risk factors include genetic syndromes, MEN disorders, autoimmune diseases, exposure to ionizing radiation. Radiotherapy is also associated an increased risk secondary thyroid cancer.

Latin American countries are improving childhood cancer care, showing strong commitment to implement the Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer, but there scant publications of situation at a continental level.
In recent decades, the survival of children with congenital anomalies and paediatric cancer has improved dramatically such that there been a steady shift towards understanding their lifelong health outcomes. Paediatric surgeons will actively manage conditions in childhood adolescence, however, adult must later care for these 'grown-ups' adulthood. This article aims to highlight some those rare disorders encountered by requiring long-term follow-up, management survivorship impact, order...

Abstract Background The International Society of Paediatric Oncology Global Mapping Program aims to describe the local pediatric oncology capacities. Here, we report data from Latin America. Methods A 10‐question survey was distributed among chairs services. Centers were classified according patient volume into high‐ (HVC; 100 or more new cases per year), medium‐ (MVC; 31–99 cases), and low‐volume centers (LVC; 30 less), respectively. National referral (NRC) identified. Results Total 307 in...
Intestinal bladder augmentations have well recognized complications, including mucus production, metabolic abnormalities and perforation. These complications may be avoided if the intestinal mucosa is not incorporated in urinary tract.
