Heart/Lung Transplant Program
The Heart/Lung Transplant Program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) is one of the largest pediatric programs in the world and is known for its excellence. We will thoroughly evaluate your child and meet with your family to determine the best path forward. We investigate treatment options other than transplants that could improve your child's health and quality of life. We explore therapies and other types of surgeries that may eliminate the need for transplantation.
If transplantation is the right option, our experienced team is the best choice for your child’s care. Our world-renowned experts have performed more than 25 heart/lung transplants in young children.
Our caring support team will be by your family’s side through every stage of the treatment and transplant process.
