Abstract:
The article examines the history of heart transplantation in experiment and in clinical practice. The part focusing on experimental transplantation covers the period from the very first attempts in 1905 up to the introduction of the current technique. The second part provides an outline of the history of transplantation in clinical practice including immunosuppressive therapy and rejection control. The first heart transplantation in the Czech Republic was performed in 1984.
