The Pediatric Intestinal Transplant Program at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital (LPCH) is the only program in Northern California that performs intestinal transplantation in children. Drawing on the capability of the hospital’s internationally recognized Pediatric Liver Transplant Program, the Intestinal Transplant Program began in 2001 with a team of surgeons representing more than 25 years of combined transplant experience. As of October, 2003, LPCH has performed seven intestinal transplants.
