Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of recent innovations in pediatric minimally invasive surgery that have enabled pediatric surgeons to operate safely on their smallest patients through tiny incisions. The development of size appropriate laparoscopes and instruments has been key in the development of this specialty. We also discuss NOTES, telemedicine, and robotic surgery in our pediatric population.
