At the Heart Institute, a surgery was performed on the heart of little Maya 6 hours after birth with a diagnosis of critical aortic stenosis. We had known the girl’s mother much earlier, to whom Prof. Borys Todurov implanted an aortic valve prosthesis in 2004.
Kyiv — Ivano-Frankivsk – Lviv. For all – 7 hours on the road for heart collection and less than an hour for surgery. The recipient is a 29-year-old man, his condition after the operation is stable.
A 62-year-old man’s life was saved last night thanks to a donor, a 38-year-old woman.
In practice, the Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine sometimes has extremely difficult cases when patients have only one chance at life. And we use all the possibilities of our Institute to save them.
Today at 14:00 a donor’s heart started to beat in the chest of 12-year-old Margarita. It was her only chance to live. Weakness is all in the past. Ahead, the girl is facing a long and happy life with a healthy heart.
This is a unique operation for our country and an extremely important page in the history of cardiac transplantation. The patient is a 13-year-old boy Maxym from the Volyn region, whose condition was critical. The transplant was successful. The child got a chance for long and happy life.
On the night of September 3, 2021, a heart transplant was performed at the Heart Institute. This is the sixth transplant in our clinic and the second in the last three days.
Tonight at the Heart Institute another person got a second chance at life. A heart transplant was performed on a 38-year-old man with a fourth blood type, which is quite rare. The transplant took 2 hours 5 minutes of ischemic time.
An 81-year-old patient with critical aortic stenosis recently applied to the Heart Institute of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. However, an arrhythmia was also detected.
