Abstract: Light-chain (AL) has a worse prognosis than transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis. We compare post-OHT survival for AL and ATTR amyloidosis, hypothesizing that AL would have worse outcomes. 39 patients with cardiac amyloidosis (AL, n =… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)31374-7
Abstract: Donor and recipient-related factors may limit long-term graft survival and a selected subset of heart transplantation recipients are candidates for re-transplantation (HRT). However, outcomes of HRT are inferior to those of primary HT. HT recipients… read more here.
