Cardiac transplantation remains a life-prolonging process. Survival after heart transplantation has improved despite a sicker incoming patient population. The field of heart transplantation is constantly evolving. Advances in organ preservation, immune monitoring, and improved immunosuppressive regimens will continue to develop over time. The impact of

New England Journal of Medicine, 1987
To the Editor.— Fricker at al (Pediatrics 1987;79:138-146) began their recent paper on heart transplantation in children by stating that heart transplantation raises medical and ethical questions. They went on to deal in great and fascinating detail with the medical questions but made no mention of the ethical ones.

Although the number of available donor hearts severely limits the epidemiologic impact of heart transplantation on patients with heart failure, patients with end-stage heart failure unresponsive to medical management currently have no other viable alternatives.

Diseases of the Chest, 1965
The performance of the heart has been examined after cardiac homo- and autotransplantation. In the early postoperative period, measurements of cardiovascular responses reaffirm the good clinical condition of these preparations. In the late postoperative period the evidence suggests that both sympathetic and parasympathetic reinnervation occur and that ...

Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2010
This paper briefly and subjectively reviews a number of the modest or tentative, but noteworthy, advances in heart transplantation that have been made during the past 18 months or so.The advances reviewed concern the selection of recipients, the management of the heart transplantation waiting list, the management of donors, post-heart transplant ...

Chimerism of the Transplanted Heart
New England Journal of Medicine, 2002Cases in which a male patient receives a heart from a female donor provide an unusual opportunity to test whether primitive cells translocate from the recipient to the graft and whether cells with the phenotypic characteristics of those of the recipient ultimately reside in the donor heart.

Pediatric Heart Transplantation
Cardiology Clinics, 1990Since the introduction of cyclosporine in the early 1980s, there has been a surge of activity in the field of pediatric heart transplantation. Careful patient selection has resulted in operative and short-term patient survival comparable to that achieved in adult transplant programs.

Histologic examination of the homografted heart at the time of "rejection" shows round cell infiltration, interstitial hemorrhage, edema, and necrosis. 1-3 With the obvious histocompatibility of cardiac autografts one would not anticipate these specific alterations in histologic appearance. However, with electron microscopy we have demonstrated certain

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1978
For patients with end-stage cardiac failure unresponsive to maximal medical and nontransplant surgical therapy, transplantation is a realistic therapeutic endeavor that results in 25 to 30 per cent long-range salvage and rehabilitation of patients in a situation where no practical alternatives currently exist.

Heart Transplantation: A Review
Journal of Transplant Coordination, 1999This article explores current developments and continuing dilemmas in heart transplantation. Statistical trends such as the increased number of candidates and the increased waiting time are described. Recent developments in implantable ventricular assist device technology and the perioperative use of nitric oxide are also highlighted.
