Abstract
Orthotopic heart transplantation is a life-saving procedure that has substantially improved the lives of countless patients since its inception. However, there are several procedure-related complications that require prompt management. Interventional radiology, with its ever expanding toolkit, is a cornerstone of the multidisciplinary team following post-cardiac transplant patients. Percutaneous, endovascular therapy provides minimally invasive, safe, and effective treatments for immediate and delayed cardiac transplant complications and this paper serves to highlight the various management options interventional radiology can provide for orthotopic heart transplantation complications.
期刊介绍:
Interventional radiology is an area of clinical diagnosis and management that is highly technique-oriented. Therefore, the format of this quarterly journal, which combines the visual impact of an atlas with the currency of a journal, lends itself perfectly to presenting the topics. Each issue is guest edited by a leader in the field and is focused on a single clinical technique or problem. The presentation is enhanced by superb illustrations and descriptive narrative outlining the steps of a particular procedure. Interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, vascular surgeons and neurosurgeons will find this a useful addition to the clinical literature.
