11-Year-old Ellie has a rare genetic condition that has caused an abnormal growth in the bones of her skull and face; now she needs major surgery to release the pressure on her brain. 1-Year-old Cody has a rare lymphatic disorder which has caused massive swelling in his neck and face: he urgently needs his protruding tongue reduced.
"Child in a million" follows the medical teams at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital over eight months, capturing just some of the incredible pioneering treatments which take place there each day. 13 children and their families both at home and in the hospital, as doctors attempt to diagnose their rare, and often, complex conditions and work out how best to treat them using cutting-edge techniques.
