Doctor Giancarlo Rastelli graduated from the University of Parma, Italy (cum laude) in July 1957, and in 1961, moved to the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, New York. The name of Dr. Rastelli is recognized worldwide for the classification of the atrioventricular (AV) canal and for the procedure relating to the anatomical repair of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary stenosis (PS). The most extraordinary aspect of his successful research work was that it was mostly done during the five years when Dr. Rastelli was fighting against his fatal illness. He died at the age of 36 years. Dr. Rastelli's fame as a scientist now belongs to the history of medicine.
詹卡洛·拉斯特利医生于1957年7月毕业于意大利帕尔马大学(以优异成绩),并于1961年移居到纽约州罗切斯特市的梅奥诊所。拉斯特利医生因房室管分类以及与大动脉转位(TGA)合并室间隔缺损(VSD)和肺动脉狭窄(PS)的解剖修复相关的手术而闻名于世。他成功的研究工作最非凡的一面在于,大部分研究是在拉斯特利医生与致命疾病作斗争的五年间完成的。他年仅36岁便去世了。拉斯特利医生作为科学家的声誉如今已载入医学史册。
