No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if a partial heart transplantation in patients with congenital heart disease is safe and feasible. Participants will have a partial heart transplant involving surgical replacement of the pulmonary valve with the heart valve and supporting blood vessels from an organ donor. The procedure, tests, medications, and follow-up visits will all be done per standard of care. Medical data will be collected to look at outcomes after surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Partial Heart Transplantation

Partial heart transplantation involves surgical replacement of the semilunar heart valve with a fresh donor graft. The surgical procedure (homograft valve replacement) is common and standard of care. The investigational aspect of this is using a freshly procured valve rather than a cryopreserved, cadaveric one and also the use of limited immunosuppression to help maintain the freshly procured valve as "living tissue".

OTHER

Freshly procured valve

Fresh donor graft semilunar heart valve.
