Sažetak
The Executive Council of The World Federation of Associations of Pediatric Surgeons (WOFAPS) met in Kyoto, Japan on May 3, 2001. Unanimously adopted the following Declaration of Pediatric Surgery: „ Children are not just small adults and have medical and surgical problems and needs that often are quite different from those encountered by adult physicians. Infants and children deserve the very best medical care available. Every infant and child who suffers from an illness or disease has the right to be treated in an environment devoted to their care by a pediatric medical or surgical specialist. Pediatric Surgeons are specially trained physicians with extensive experience and expertise in treating infants and children of all ages (from birth through adolescence) with surgical disorders. Because of their unique training, pediatric surgical specialists provide a wide range of treatment options and the highest quality care to children. Pediatric Surgeons diagnose, treat, and manage children's surgical needs including surgical repair of birth defects, serious injuries in children, childhood solid tumors, conditions requiring endoscopy and minimally invasive procedures, and all other surgical procedures in children. To provide the best surgical care for infants and children, complex pediatric surgical procedures should be carried out in specialized pediatric centers with appropriately equipped intensive care facilities staffed 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. In addition to the trained pediatric surgeons, these facilities should be staffed with other pediatric specialists including radiologists, anesthesiologists, and pathologists. These specialized centers should provide postgraduate education and research. “
