Enhanced Recovery After Surgery for Pediatric Abdominal Tumor Resections: A Prospective Multi-institution Study

In brief

This multi-institutional prospective study examines the implementation and outcomes of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in children undergoing abdominal tumor resections. The research evaluates standardized perioperative care pathways designed to optimize recovery in pediatric oncology surgical patients.

• ERAS protocols standardize perioperative care through multi-disciplinary collaboration in pediatric oncology surgery.
• First prospective multi-institutional study demonstrates ERAS feasibility in pediatric abdominal tumor resections.
• ERAS implementation in pediatric oncology requires adaptation of adult protocols to pediatric-specific needs.
• Multi-institutional approach provides stronger evidence for ERAS adoption in pediatric surgical oncology.
