[Heart transplantation--2 years' experience in the Grosshadern Clinic of the University of Munich].
Between August 1981 and August 1983 11 heart transplantations were carried out at the Klinikum Grosshadern of the University of Munich. The recipients were 10 men and 1 women. The age of the patients at the time of the operation ranged from 20 to 45 years. The diagnosis was: congestive cardiomyopathy (4 cases), coronary heart disease (5 cases), Uhl's disease (1 case), valvular heart disease (1 case). Cyclosporin A was used as the main immunosuppressive agent in all cases. 3 patients died (1., 10. and 73. postop. day). 8 patients survived now since 2 to 25 months. The survival time exceeds 0.5 years in 5 cases and 1 year in 3 cases.
