Our mission is to provide the highest quality patient care for our patients, to foster translational research, and to train the best transplant surgeons for the future. The Division of Abdominal Transplantation is a key component of the transplantation services offered at Stanford Hospital & Clinics (SHC) and Lucile Packard Children's' Hospital at Stanford(LPCH). 

Types of transplants performed in adult patients are:

• Liver
• Kidney
• Pancreas
• Intestinal transplantation

Pediatric organ transplants performed include:

• Liver
• Kidney
• Intestinal transplantation

The Division of Abdominal Transplantation is highly committed to improving the care of our transplant patients through innovative clinical and basic science research. Transplantation is also an important branch of the Immunity, Transplantation and Infection Institute at Stanford University (ITI).  ITI fosters multidisciplinary research projects to investigate in much greater detail the function of the immune system in health and disease including transplantation. To carry out this mission, the Human Immune Monitoring Center was created.

The Division of Abdominal Transplantation also seeks to enhance educational opportunities for individuals who want to pursue a career in clinical or experimental transplantation. The following fellowships are offered:

• Transplant Surgery Fellowship
• Transplant  Research Fellowship
