Improving results of heart transplantation have led to a substantial increase in the number of transplantations performed each year ever since the early 1980s. The paper offers a review of our own experience with orthotopic heart transplantation. In the period between January 1984 and October 1986, a total of 11 transplantations has been carried out. Two patients died in the early postoperative period, nine were discharged from the hospital. There were two deaths in the late postoperative period. The seven surviving patients are in a satisfactory condition. Experience gathered hitherto in the world, and confirmed by our own results, shows that heart transplantation has become a therapeutic modality in patients selected on the basis of stringent criteria. The procedure, however, must be performed only in centres having a sufficient body of experience in cardiology, cardiac surgery, and transplantation of other organs.
自20世纪80年代初以来，心脏移植手术效果的改善使得每年进行的移植手术数量大幅增加。本文回顾了我们自身原位心脏移植的经验。在1984年1月至1986年10月期间，共进行了11例移植手术。两名患者在术后早期死亡，九名患者出院。术后晚期有两例死亡。七名存活患者状况良好。迄今为止世界范围内积累的经验，并经我们自己的结果证实，表明心脏移植已成为根据严格标准挑选出的患者的一种治疗方式。然而，该手术必须仅在具备足够心脏病学、心脏外科和其他器官移植经验的中心进行。
