Pediatric Neurosurgery

During their pediatric rotation at Oishei Children’s Hospital, the residents work directly under the supervision of the pediatric neurosurgeons. They are intimately involved in all areas of pediatric neurological care including performing operative procedures, participating in perioperative care, and attending general and specialized pediatric clinics such as the multidisciplinary spasticity, spina bifida, and oncologic clinics.

In addition, the residents participate in many specialized conferences, such as oncologic and epilepsy conferences. Dedicated educational sessions are held weekly between the residents and neurosurgical attendings to further augment their knowledge base.
