Pediatric Otolaryngology Fellowship
Pediatric Otolaryngology Fellowship The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia The Children’s Hospital of philadelphia Highlights… After visiting the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children in London, Francis West Lewis, MD, decided to create a hospital in the United States dedicated to finding cures and treating illnesses and injuries specific to children. He persuaded two friends, T. Hewson Bache, MD, and R.A.F. Penrose, MD, to join him in the venture. In the Hospital's first year, it had 12 beds and a dispensary, and the physicians served 67 inpatients and 306 clinic patients. T. Hewson Bache, M.D. Francis Lewis, M.D. Since its start in 1855 as the nation's first hospital devoted exclusively to caring for children, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia has been the birthplace for many dramatic firsts in pediatric medicine. The Hospital has fostered medical discoveries and innovations that have improved pediatric healthcare and saved countless children's lives. Over 150 years of innovation and service to our patients, their families and our community, reflect an ongoing commitment to exceptional patient care. The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia shares the No. 1 spot on U.S. News & World Report's Honor Roll of the nation's Best Children's Hospitals. CHOP also ranked first in the nation for neonatology, pulmonology, and diabetes and endocrinology, and in the top 4 for seven other pediatric specialties ranked by the U.S. News survey. CHOP was one of only three children's hospitals in the nation to be recognized in the top 4 of all 10 pediatric specialty areas. It is the only hospital in the region to be named to the prestigious U.S. News Honor Roll. To create the 2011-12 rankings, U.S. News & World Report surveyed nearly 180 children's hospitals to obtain clinical data and asked 1,500 doctors in 10 pediatric specialties where they would send the sickest children. CHOP earned high marks for the quality of its treatment, survival rates, research and other factors. The hospital was also recognized for its “very strong” reputation with specialists and “superior” nurse-patient ratios. R.A.F. Penrose, M.D. Parents magazine has ranked The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia the best pediatric hospital in the United States, based on a comprehensive data-based survey. In addition to the overall ranking, Parents magazine also ranked CHOP's emergency medicine, neonatology and pulmonology divisions No. 1 in the nation. The Cardiac Center, Cancer Center and orthopaedics division ranked second. ◗ First hospital in the nation devoted exclusively to pediatric medicine, established in 1855. ◗ First formal medical training for pediatric doctors. ◗ First pediatric day surgery unit in the U.S.A. ◗ First to perform neonatal surgery and to establish a pediatric intensive care unit in the U.S.A. ◗ First multidisciplinary homecare program in the U.S.A. for children who need medical ventilators. ◗ First designated Level I Pediatric Regional Resource Trauma Center in Eastern Pennsylvania. ◗ First follow-up program from long-term survivors of childhood cancer. ◗ First clinic in the nation for the treatment of childhood speech defects. ◗ First to develop the closed incubator for neonates. ◗ First to develop the balloon catheter for the treatment of certain heart defects. ◗ First to discover the cause of infectious mononucleosis. ◗ First to develop vaccines for mumps, whooping cough and influenza. ◗ First to author a book about Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. ◗ First to develop a unique acute insulin response test to diagnose patients with focal lesions of congenital hyperinsulinism that can be cured by surgical intervention. ◗ First to develop a Family Faculty Program in which adult family members teach physicians and staff about the experience of illness. ◗ First to offer subspecialty training in Pediatric Emergency Medicine. The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s Ambulatory Network Division of Otolaryngology Our reputation as one of the leading pediatric otolaryngology centers in the U.S. attracts families from across the country and around the world. In FY11, we treated patients in more than 36,578 office visits and performed 9,494 surgeries, including a large group of children who required surgery for chronic airway disorders and chronic ear disease and the largest population of patients with congenital cholesteatoma in the reported world literature. Along with our colleagues in the Departments of Audiology and Speech Therapy in the Center for Childhood Communication, we evaluate and treat children with hearing loss and have active cochlear implant and BAHA™ programs. We provide care for children and teenagers at our six satellite specialty care centers in Pennsylvania at Exton, King of Prussia and Bucks County (Chalfont) and in New Jersey at Mays Landing (Atlantic City), Princeton and Voorhees, as well as at the Main Campus of The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in University City. Programs and Services: Center for Pediatric Airway Disorders. Co-directed by Drs. Ian Jacobs and Karen Zur, our Airway Program offers a comprehensive evaluation in a single visit for children with complex airway problems, such as subglottic stenosis and chronic tracheotomy. Our team of airway surgeons, nurse practitioners, pulmonologists, respiratory therapists, and feeding and speech pathologists provide special needs patients with the highest quality of care and service.

The Pediatric Voice Program, under the directorship of Dr. Karen B. Zur, provides comprehensive evaluation and excellent voice care for children with pathology of the larynx and trachea affecting voice production; to advance the understanding of causes, treatment and prevention of voice disorders; and to promote optimal therapeutic paradigms to aid in vocal rehabilitation of voice-impaired children. A myriad of conditions leading to pediatric voice disorders are diagnosed and managed by this team of professionals, including: vocal fold LEHIGH paralysis, benign lesions of the larynx, dysphonia following surgical airway reconstruction BERKS and vocal fold dysfunction (VCD). The Complex Head-andNeck/Skull-Base Lesion Clinic, under the directorship of Ken Kazahaya, MD, MBA, provides new and follow-up patients with complex pathology a comprehensive evaluation and treatment strategy. Conditions managed include head and neck tumors, temporal bone and skull-base lesions, and cerebrospinal fluid leaks.
