“…28,29 Due to frequent dysrhythmias and different flow conditions, thromboembolic events may occur at an increased rate by leaving the often dilated native heart in place. 30,31 Compared with OHT, preservation of the 'preconditioned' native right ventricle (RV) seemed to offer better survival to recipients with severe pulmonary hypertension. 32,33 Despite being rarely used today, the heterotopic approach remains a valuable option in recipients with high irreversible transpulmonary pressure gradients and expands the donor pool through use of undersized or otherwise compromised allografts.…”

Η αντιμετώπισή της περιλαμβάνει φαρμακευτική αγωγή και χειρουργικές επεμβάσεις 2,3 . Στις περιπτώσεις καρδιακής ανεπάρκειας τελικού σταδίου οι θεραπευτικές λύσεις περιορίζονται στη μεταμόσχευση καρδιάς ή στην πιο πρόσφατη μέθοδο της εμφύτευσης συσκευών μηχανικής υποστήριξης της κυκλοφορίας.…”
