It consists fo a wide variety of diseases. The diseases are mainly congenital anomalies. In the past 5 years in National Taiwan University Hospital, a total of 172 newborns received operations (cardiovascular, orthopedical, neurological operations and minor surgeries were excluded) in the pediatric surgical division. The male to female ratio was 2:1 (114:58). The average age at operation was 7.9 ± 8.1 days old. There were eighteen mortalities with the mortality rate being 10.4%. We found that the significant poor prognostic factors included associated chromosomal disorder, combined congenital anomalies, low body weight during operation, high pre-operative partial thromboplatin time ratio, and an operation time beyond 100 minutes.[SDGs]SDG3thromboplastin; age; article; cardiovascular disease; cardiovascular surgery; chromosome disorder; comorbidity; congenital bone disease; congenital malformation; controlled study; disease association; experience; female; gastrointestinal disease; gastrointestinal surgery; human; intraoperative period; low birth weight; major clinical study; male; minor surgery; neurologic disease; neurosurgery; newborn; newborn surgery; operation duration; orthopedic surgery; partial thromboplastin time; pediatrics; preoperative evaluation; prognosis; sex difference; surgical mortality; Taiwan; university hospitaljournal article2-s2.0-0036874621
