Thoracic and Lung Surgery
When a child is diagnosed with a condition affecting his or her chest, specialized care may be necessary. Pediatric thoracic surgery is a treatment option for diseases and conditions that involve the chest wall as well as the organs within the chest, typically between the neck and abdomen.

- Bronchogeneic Cysts
- Chest Tumors
- Chest Wall Deformities – Pectus Anomalies
- Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

- Esophageal Deformitis
- Lung Masses
Our board-certified pediatric surgeons treat children with a range of thoracic diseases and conditions from congenital to acquired conditions. Palm Beach Children’s Surgical Specialists are committed to caring for the little ones in your life.
