The major problems with organ transplantation are rejection of the allograft and the side effects of antirejection therapy. This report describes the successful treatment of a patient in whom rejection of the donor heart developed 10 months after implantation. The recipient's own heart had been left intact and was able to support the circulation during the period of rejection. Indications are that the "rest" period of 10 months was beneficial to the myopathic left ventricle of the recipient's heart.
器官移植的主要问题是同种异体移植物的排斥反应以及抗排斥治疗的副作用。本报告描述了一名患者的成功治疗案例，该患者在心脏植入10个月后出现供体心脏排斥反应。受体自身的心脏保持完好，并在排斥反应期间能够维持血液循环。有迹象表明，10个月的“休息”期对受体心脏的肌病性左心室有益。
