Reasons for Procedure
A heart transplant is done if you have:
- End stage heart disease that is life-threatening and cannot be fixed (but you are in otherwise good health)—This is most often due to cardiomyopathy (disease of the heart muscle) with severe congestive heart failure.
- Severe coronary artery disease that cannot be fixed with medicine or other surgeries
- Congenital heart defects
- Valvular defects making it too hard for the heart to pump blood through the body
- Uncontrollable life-threatening irregular heart rhythms
