More than 150 surgical procedures are performed on newborns,
infants and children at Connecticut Children's Medical
Center each year. The entire spectrum of congenital cardiac
operations are performed including operations for complex
single ventricle anatomy, complex neonatal repairs and
operations for teenagers and young adults with congenital
heart disease. The surgeons at Connecticut Children's
specialize in early corrective surgery. Together, Drs. Kopf
and Mello have established a combined congenital
cardiothoracic program in Connecticut which has linked the
departments of cardiothoracic surgery and pediatric
cardiology at both Connecticut Children's and Yale New Haven
Hospital. Approximately 300 cardiac procedures are performed
yearly in Connecticut's combined cardiothoracic surgery
program. A coordinated team approach is emphasized with a
great deal of attention paid to patient comfort and parent
involvement.
