What is the minimum age for a heart transplant? What is the success ratio?
Jan 7, 2013

Dr. Ziad Mansour Thoracic Surgery
There is no minimal age for a heart transplant.
In adults, global immediate success rate after the operation is 90%.
For a specific patient, success rate depends on his or her general state before the surgery and on the accompanying comorbidities.
