Treatment and research of a rare liver disorder
Welcome to the CHOP Biliary Atresia Clinical Care Program. We treat children with biliary atresia and research the cause and course of this rare liver disease.
Although biliary atresia is rare, its geographic reach is wide. Families from across the nation and around the world come to us because of our reputation as one of the premier specialty centers for biliary atresia in the United States.
We have been caring for children with biliary atresia since the 1970s, when Dr. Morio Kasai, who devised and pioneered the operation now considered the standard treatment for the condition, came to work with Dr. C. Everett Koop and his surgical partner, Dr. Louise Schnaufer.
When your child receives care here, we will provide the most up-to-date information and treatment available. Our physicians and researchers collaborate closely with other specialists at Children's Hospital and colleagues throughout the international medical community to share information and promising treatment advances.
