[Technical variations in abdominal heterotransplants of the heart].
The Authors describe the innovations by them introduced in a series of 15 experiments of abdominal heart heterotopic transplantation done in the Institute of Veterinary Physiology and Biochemistry University of Milano. Particularly they recommend the use of cardioplegia and the prolene as suture's material to reduce the ischemic time. Also they signal the importance of a new position of the transplanted heart with the apex looking at the head of the recipient. They think this position should be the best to preserve the anatomical connections between the great vessels of the guest heart.
