Pediatric Surgery at The Children's Hospital at Saint Peter's University Hospital

CyberKnife® at Saint Peter’s
Imagine a nonsurgical way to treat both cancerous and noncancerous tumors anywhere in the body. CyberKnife is the only robotic radiosurgery system that can deliver non-surgical stereotactic treatments with sub-millimeter accuracy, anywhere in the body — including the prostate, lung, brain, spine, liver, pancreas and kidneys. It delivers beams of high-dose radiation with pinpoint accuracy allowing for efficient highly effective treatments without patient discomfort.

Saint Peter’s Bloodless Medicine Program
When surgery is the recommended course of treatment, doctors at Saint Peter's University Hospital may use a variety of state-of-the-art technologies and techniques appropriate for the patient and the procedure to minimize blood loss, such as intraoperative cell salvage, which calls for cleaning blood that remains in constant circulation. Following surgery, blood loss is minimized and blood production enhanced through medication, nutrition therapy and the use of technology. Blood also can be collected postoperatively from the patient and processed without leaving the patient's body.

The Wound Care Center and Hyperbaric Services are offered at Saint Peter's University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey and Monroe Township, New Jersey. Our wound care center is a leader in the surgical and nonsurgical treatment of chronic non-healing wounds.
