Philosophy:
Dr. Christoph Troppmann has expertise in pancreas, kidney and intestinal transplantation. His clinical interests also include use of living organ donors, including the application of laparoscopic surgical techniques; pancreas transplantation for improved quality of life in addition to prevention and treatment of secondary complications in people who have insulin-dependent Type I diabetics; and surgical interventions in patients with end-stage organ failure. Dr. Troppmann is conducting research in pharmacologic and immunomodulatory treatment protocols to decrease rejection, and the impact of the quality of early post-transplant graft function as well as of acute and chronic rejection on long-term outcomes. He is fluent in English, German, French, Dutch and Spanish.
