      heart failure after rejection for heart transplantation].
PG  - 2319-24
AB  - A woman aged 64 was severely handicapped by dyspnoea due to 'terminal heart 
      failure' resulting from idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. The mitral valve was 
      seriously insufficient; the coronary vessels were normal. The patient was not 
      eligible for heart transplantation. Partial left ventriculectomy by Batista's 
      method was performed and the mitral valve replaced by an artificial one. The left 
      ventricular ejection fraction increased from 0.12 before the operation to 0.35 
      postoperatively and to 0.43 two years later. Patient was then capable of normal 
      exercise (New York Heart Association (NYHA): class I-II). In the Netherlands 
      partial left ventriculectomy is the last surgical option for patients rejected 
      for heart transplantation.
