- Abstract
- Orthotopic heart transplantation was performed in a 21-year-old medical student 11 years after left pneumonectomy for a rhabdomyosarcoma. The cardiomyopathy was the result of the administration of doxorubicin (Adriamycin). The surgical procedure was largely facilitated as a result of an in-hospital donor and the absence of major adhesions. The early postoperative course was mainly uneventful. The patient is doing well 9 months after operation, without any episode of rejection or infection.
