At about 6 months old, Kennedie was diagnosed with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) type 2. Pediatric hepatologist Dania Brigham, MD, explains how Kennedie’s Children’s Hospital Colorado care team helped her grow and improve her health to improve the outcome of her liver transplantation.
Our Pediatric Liver Transplant Program looks at liver transplantation from every angle to achieve the best results possible. In addition to deceased donor liver transplant, we offer living-donor liver transplants. The living-donor transplant option allows us to optimize a patient’s health as much as possible before surgery, giving children the very best chance at a happy and healthy life.
