- Treat congenital and acquired HPB conditions, including biliary atresia, pediatric liver tumors (e.g., hepatoblastoma), and pancreatic cysts or trauma.
- Collaborate with pediatric surgeons, hepatologists, oncologists, and intensivists as part of a multidisciplinary team managing complex pediatric HPB diseases.
- Monitor post-procedure recovery and manage complications, ensuring safe and effective outcomes in pediatric patients.
