Research
- Our research group is involved in research projects on malformations and surgical disorders of the gastrointestinal tract in children, such as anorectal malformations, Hirschsprung disease, necrotizing enterocolitis and acute appendicitis. We focus on the short- and long-term outcome studies of the surgical treatment. These studies are important to inform parents about what to expect when their child gets older. We are also involved in register studies and interventional studies.
