Title: Heart transplantation after repair of postinfarction ventricular septal defect. Author: Blanche C, Aleksic I, Czer LS, Freimark D, Takkenberg JJ, Trento A. Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1995 Dec; 36(6):551-4. PubMed ID: 8632023.

The patient underwent orthotopic heart transplantation three months after his initial operation, and he is clinically well sixteen months after transplantation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
