  • Surgical Advances in Heart and Lung Transplantation
    Anesthesiology Clin N Am 22 (2004) 789–807 Surgical advances in heart and lung transplantation Eric E. Roselli, MD*, Nicholas G. Smedira, MD Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Desk F25, 9500 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44195, USA The first heart transplants were performed in dogs by Alexis Carrel and Charles Guthrie in 1905, but it was not until the 1950s that attempts at human orthotopic heart transplant were reported. Several obstacles, including a clear definition of brain death, adequate organ preservation, control of rejection, and an easily reproducible method of implantation, slowed progress. Eventually, the first successful human to human orthotopic heart transplant was performed by Christian Barnard in South Africa in 1967 [1]. Poor healing of bronchial anastomoses hindered early progress in lung transplantation, first reported in 1963 [2]. The first successful transplant of heart and both lungs was accomplished at Stanford University School of Medicine (Stanford, CA) in 1981 [3]. The introduction of cyclosporine to immunosuppres- sion protocols, with lower doses of steroids, led to the first successful isolated lung transplant, performed at Toronto General Hospital in 1983 [4]. Since these early successes at thoracic transplantation, great progress has been made in the care of patients with end-stage heart and lung disease. Although only minor changes have occurred in surgical technique for heart and lung transplantation, the greatest changes have been in liberalizing donor criteria to expand the donor pool. This article focuses on more recent surgical advances in donor selection and management, procurement and implantation, and the impact these advances have had on patient outcome.

    Heart Transplantation what to expect and resources guidebook Proven experience and positive outcomes for patients like you. We’re here to help support you throughout your heart transplant journey. Your heart has carried you through your entire life pumping oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood to your body’s cells. For some reason, your heart may now be struggling to continue its life-saving job. If doctors have told you that no other form of medical treatments can be done to repair or improve your heart’s function, a heart transplant might be an option for you. And, we are here to guide you through the heart transplant process with hope. AdventHealth Cardiovascular Institute Heart Transplant Program Call 877-659-9433 for more information. 1 Understanding the miracle of heart transplant. Get back to your life. It sounds like a miracle and, in some ways, The most common reason for a heart transplant it is. A heart transplant can help patients is chronic heart failure. Heart failure, usually with advanced heart failure by replacing their caused by heart disease, makes the heart muscle heart with a healthy, donated heart. It can be too weak to pump enough blood throughout recommended by your doctor if he or she feels your body. that there are no other options to treat your heart failure.
