Zusammenfassung:	Pediatric surgery is a specialty which grew up in this century, largely at Children's Hospital in Boston. The major contributions in the field have come from doctors there. Today, there are 31 schools specializing in pediatric surgery in the United States and six schools in Canada. 100 years ago, it was largely limited to treating bone and joint tuberculosis. Today, pediatric and prenatal surgeries of the most delicate kind are routinely performed.
