The Department of Adult and Pediatric Cardiac Surgery specializes in surgeries of all complexities, including interventions for congenital and acquired heart defects, stenting and bypass surgery, valve replacement, and more.

The orthopedic department provides medical care to patients with musculoskeletal deformities such as clubfoot, hip dysplasia, arthrogryposis, myelomeningocele, scoliosis, and trauma. The hemato-oncology department treats children with blood disorders and various types of malignant tumors. Research on cancer mechanisms and its development in children is one of the hospital’s research areas.
