Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cardiomyopathy (CM) are the most common indications for heart transplantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the difference in clinical outcome between these two groups. At our institution between 1987 and 1998 transplantation was performed in 133 patients with IHD and 87 with CM. Follow-up was complete for all patients (mean 87 months). Mean age at time of surgery was 51 +/- 5 years for IHD versus 39 +/- 9 years for CM recipients (p = 0.02). There was no difference in donor age, donor gender, or pre-operative hemodynamics between the two groups. The operative mortality was 11.2% in IHD recipients and 10.6% in CM recipients (p = 0.9). No differences were observed in intra-cardiac pressures or incidence of renal dysfunction, infection, or malignancy between the two groups. The incidence of peripheral vascular incidents was significantly higher for IHD recipients (13% vs 3%, p = 0.02). At 10 years, the incidence of coronary artery disease was 35% and 9%, respectively (p = 0.02). Mean NYHA status was 2.0 +/- 0.3 and 1.1 +/- 0.2 for IHD and CM recipients, respectively (p = 0.013). The actuarial survival at 1, 5, and 10 years was 77%, 62%, and 39% for IHD recipients compared with 85%, 82%,...Continue Reading
