Abstract:
Complications and causes of death in patients with transplanted heart were analyzed in various intervals after operation. They comprised early deaths in the first week, short-time survival until one year, and long-time survival over one year. Acute heart failure of varied nature prevailed in early deaths as well as in long-time survival. In short-time survival, there were different causes of death in addition to heart failure.
