Background/purpose: This is an article submitted on behalf of the Canadian Association of Pediatric Surgeons. We assert that Pediatric Surgeons must work to dismantle systemic racism. Pediatric Surgeons have expertise in both common and rare surgical diseases affecting patients ranging from premature neonates to adolescents.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis in order to determine quantitative measures of precisely how well pre-treatment IDRFs predict surgical outcomes and survival.
Methods: A systematic review was performed for studies between January 1990 and July 2019 that compared surgical outcomes and/or survival in pediatric neuroblastoma patients with one or more IDRFs to patients without IDRFs.
Background: Health systems must identify preventable adverse outcomes to improve surgical safety. We conducted a systematic review to determine national rates of postoperative complications associated with two common pediatric surgery operations in High-Income Countries (HICs).
Methods: National database studies of complication rates associated with pediatric appendectomies and cholecystectomies (2000-2016) in Canada, the US, and the UK were included.
Background: The ideal management for fistula-in-ano would resolve the disease while preserving anal continence.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of draining seton alone in achieving resolution or significant amelioration of symptoms for patients with fistula-in-ano.
Design: This was a retrospective case series involving chart review and telephone interviews.
