title: [Surgical treatment for ischemic cardiomyopathy].
abstract: The efficacy of regenerative cell therapy as strategy of cardiac functional recovery in patients with end-stage heart failure has been recently reported, and clinical applications of autologous skeletal myoblast cell transplantation has been already started in Europe and Unitd States. We developed cell sheet technology with a temperature-responsive culture dish, which enabled cell-to-cell junction to retain, and started a clinical study of cardiac regenerative therapy using autologous skeletal myoblast cell sheet implantation.
