Steven Borows #1 / 7	where are lung transplants performed I am attempting to get some information for my mother. She would like to know where the best place to go to have a lung transplant would be. I am a grad in biomedical engineering and have access to university resources. Does anyone know the answer or a place I can go to find it? Thanks, Steven Borowski

You might evaluate their transplant team.

mitchell harry grays #5 / 7	where are lung transplants performed Lung transplants are performed at the University of Pennsylvania. I would suggest contacting Harold Palevsky, MD (or his office) at The Hospital of the Univ. of Penna.; 3400 Spruce St.; Phila. PA 19104 {or call 215/662-4000}. Good Luck... -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

You might evaluate their transplant team. > Wasn't it a LIVER transplant? You're correct. Regarding transplant programs, however, I'd recommend you contact my organization -- UNOS. Under federal contract we administer the national system to match organ donors with recipients and to collect data on all U.S. transplants. All transplant centers and organ procurement organizations are members of the network we maintain. I won't (can't, in fact) offer value judgements on the "best" center. But we maintain lists of all programs and supporting data and information that can aid in your choice. Within a couple weeks we should have a WWW site established, and I'll post an announcement here. In the meanwhile, you can send me an e-mail or call our Corporate Communications office at 804-330-8561. BTW, there is also a very active listserv group for transplant recipients, candidates, family members, etc. The FAQ was recently published on this group. If you'd like more information, let me know. --------------------------------- Joel D. Newman Manager, Corporate Communications UNOS

You mention a listserv - I'm new here - can you tell me where to find it? My father is waiting at Temple UH for a heart and my family and I have lots of questions/worries... Thanks!! --Eva Katz
