Pediatric Organ Transplant Surgery (click for worldwide facilities list): Organ donation is the process of removal and transplantation of viable organs from donor to recipient. Recipients have to be matched with the donor organ in order to reduce the recipient's rejection of the new organ.

Organs that can be transplanted are the heart, kidneys, liver, lungs, pancreas, penis and intestine. Tissues include bones, tendons, cornea, heart valves, veins, arms, and skin.

Organ donation is one of the most challenging and complex areas of modern medicine. Some of the key areas for medical management are the problems of organ rejection - where the body has an immune response to an organ which causes failure of the transplant and of ensuring that the organ can be kept in a functioning state while it is transplanted from one body to another.

Providing new hope and improved quality of life for children with life-threatening illnesses, pediatric organ transplant surgery involves a team of specialists and the latest technologies for comprehensive care for newborns to young adults. An interdisciplinary team provides diagnosis, treatment, and care management as well as education and support for pediatric patients with a variety of conditions and their families.
A multidisciplinary team may include: a transplant nurse coordinator, transplant surgeons, social worker, child psychologist, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, anesthesiologists, cardiologists, hematologists, nephrologists, renal clinic RN, dialysis RN, infectious disease specialists, child life specialists, pharmacists, pathologists, among others, depending upon the transplant procedure and medical facility.

Pediatric transplant specialists perform transplants from living donors who are relatives of the child, transplants from non-relatives, and transplants from non-living donors. Pediatric transplants surgeries may be open or laparoscopic. Medical facilities will have their pediatric organ transplant specialties. Check with individual hospitals.
