Welcome to the Cardiothoracic Surgery Center at Beijing Kyoto Children's Hospital. It is my privilege to introduce our specialized team and the comprehensive care we provide to children with complex cardiac and thoracic conditions—both here in China and across the globe.
Welcome to the Cardiothoracic Surgery Center at Beijing Kyoto Children's Hospital. It is my privilege to introduce our specialized team and the comprehensive care we provide to children with complex cardiac and thoracic conditions—both here in China and across the globe.
At our center, we understand that a child’s heart or thoracic condition affects not just the patient, but the entire family. That is why we have built a world-class program rooted in three core principles: clinical excellence, innovation, and family-centered care.
Our team comprises internationally trained surgeons, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, and nurses with expertise in treating rare and complex pediatric conditions, including congenital heart defects (such as ASD, VSD, and tetralogy of Fallot), thoracic tumors, and complicated chest wall anomalies. Many of our physicians have trained or collaborated with leading institutions worldwide, including Boston Children’s Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital, and Tokyo Women’s Medical University, ensuring that our practices align with global standards.
Innovation drives our approach to care. We leverage advanced technologies such as 3D cardiac imaging, minimally invasive robotic surgery, and intraoperative fluorescence guidance to enhance precision and reduce recovery time. For example, our success rate in repairing complex congenital heart defects exceeds 98%, and our 5-year survival outcomes for pediatric thoracic tumors match or surpass those of top international centers. We also prioritize research, actively participating in global multi-center trials to bring cutting-edge therapies—from novel reconstructive techniques to targeted treatments—directly to our young patients.
We take pride in our commitment to accessibility and inclusivity. As a center serving international patients, we offer multilingual support (English, Arabic, and more), streamlined appointment scheduling for overseas families, and coordination with international insurance providers. Our team works closely with families from initial consultation to long-term follow-up, ensuring clear communication and personalized care plans tailored to each child’s unique needs.
Beyond medical treatment, we recognize the emotional journey families undertake. Our child life specialists, psychologists, and social workers provide holistic support—from preparing children for surgery through play therapy to assisting families with accommodation and logistics. We believe that healing extends beyond the operating room, and we strive to create a compassionate environment where every child and family feels supported.
Whether your child requires routine care or complex surgery, rest assured that they will receive the highest quality treatment at our center. We are honored to be a trusted partner in your child’s health journey and committed to achieving the best possible outcomes—together.
