Heart Transplantation
One of the most challenging scientific steps of the modern era has been the ability to replace, functionally or anatomically, the failing heart, and in December 2017 we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the worlds first human heart transplant.

Topics covered includes: Heart Transplant, Donor Heart Allocation, Heart Transplantation in the Era of the Left Ventricular Assist Devices, Surgical Management for Advanced Heart Failure in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease, Orthotopic Heart Transplantation, Heterotopic Heart Transplantation, Anesthesia and Intensive Care Management for Cardiac Transplantation, Graft Vascular Disease, Post-Heart Transplantation Lymphoproliferations, Cardiac Re-Transplantation.
