Bone marrow stem cell treatment in heart failure patients

Abstract

Chronic heart failure (CHF) treatment is an important problem of modern cardiology, with only one radical, but not universally possible solution – heart transplantation. Regenerative myocardial therapy, stem cell transplantation, raises increasing interest recently, due to many researchers’ doubts on genetic therapy for coronary heart disease and CHF management.
