How Is Organ Transplant Surgery Different For Children?

Organ transplants for Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµren are different from adult organ transplantation—not just because Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµren are smaller in size, but because Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµren have special emotional and medical needs. Our surgeons understand that Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµren's growth and development cause unique challenges during organ transplant surgeries.

Besides their specialty training in pediatrics and surgical procedures, our physicians focus their care on each individual Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµ and family to make sure they have the best experience possible.
