pubmed:abstractText |
Cardiac transplantation is a life-saving procedure in infants and children with advanced cardiomyopathy. However, it is greatly limited by shortage of paediatric donors and the complications of long-term immunosuppression, including post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). We report the management of an infant who had heterotopic cardiac transplantation for advanced cardiomyopathy with secondary pulmonary hypertension who developed seemingly incurable PTLD.
