Abstract

The pediatric medical care system is experiencing severe problems. The number of would-be pediatric surgeons is on the decrease. The overwork, shortage of manpower and unprofitability in the pediatric surgical field are not welcomed by medical students. Recently, some of them do not believe that they should sacrifice themselves for the patients. We emphasize that pediatric surgeons contribute to the care of children, and the well-being and future of children. Publicizing the need to reform the medical care system and improve the education system is a matter of urgent importance.
