Neonatal Surgery: Techniques, Evidence, and Outcomes addresses the increasing need for specialized surgical care in neonates, recognizing that neonatal surgery requires unique considerations compared to other surgical populations. This definitive textbook, written by leaders in the field, provides a comprehensive guide to performing neonatal surgery, focusing on practical aspects and optimal outcomes. It covers critical questions regarding the timing, postoperative management, and surgical techniques necessary for the best results. As the first textbook devoted entirely to neonatal surgery, it fills a vital gap in medical literature, offering essential insights for clinicians and researchers alike. The book opens with a focus on the general care of the neonatal surgical patient, covering anatomy and physiological considerations, preoperative workup, anesthesia, pain management, and nursing considerations. It also includes chapters on family experiences, surgical transport, nutrition, pharmacy, vascular access, and radiographic considerations. Subsequent sections delve into specialized areas such as head and neck surgery, thoracic surgery, abdominal surgery, urologic surgery, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, and congenital heart surgery. The book concludes with discussion on the future of neonatal surgery and special considerations for surgery on neonates in low to middle income countries. Each section provides detailed, evidence-based guidelines and techniques for managing specific conditions, ensuring comprehensive coverage of neonatal surgical care. Neonatal Surgery: Techniques, Evidence, and Outcomes is an invaluable resource for both clinical learners and practicing surgeons. It serves as a critical how-to guide for students and residents, while offering practicing surgeons an authoritative reference for optimal surgical care, including evidence-based management strategies. Researchers will find the book indispensable for understanding the metabolic and physiological responses to neonatal surgery, adding translational relevance to their studies. This textbook is essential for anyone involved in the surgical care of neonates, providing the knowledge and expertise needed to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Dr. David Hackam is the Garrett Professor and Chief of Pediatric Surgery at Johns Hopkins University and Pediatric Surgeon in Chief and co-director of the Johns Hopkins Children's Center. He earned his MD from the University of Western Ontario and completed his PhD in Cell Biology and General Surgery training at the University of Toronto, followed by a Pediatric Surgery fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Hackam specializes in managing complex surgical disorders in newborns, particularly necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), and authored the first textbook on NEC. His research focuses on understanding NEC's pathogenesis and developing novel therapies, leading to six patents and several therapeutics in clinical development. Funded by the NIH for 21 years, he holds multiple research awards and grants, and has held leadership roles in several prestigious surgical organizations.
