What the experts said
The Finnish Pediatric Surgery Hub was established in 2021 by pediatric surgeons from Finland's five neonatal surgery centers.
The hub performed 34 elective and 6 urgent cases total.
The most frequent diagnoses included anorectal malformations, esophageal atresia, and Hirschsprung disease.
The hub held regular monthly virtual meetings to present new patients, discuss complex cases, and follow up on patients after surgery.
Findings suggest that the Finnish Pediatric Surgery hub fosters an effective and safe place for sharing surgical expertise and learning.
