Heart transplant is a surgery that removes the diseased heart from a person and replaces a healthy heart. It is taken from a healthy organ donor. A heart transplant is the best treatment choice for heart failure. It is a last resort treatment for people who have end-stage heart failure or severe coronary disease. It means the heart has eternal damage or weakness that keeps it from pumping enough blood to your body. Heart transplants are more difficult than other organ transplant surgeries. A heart transplant is a deceased organ donation process. When the person is technically dead, brain dead but the organs are still functioning then it is acceptable for organ donation. After taking a transplant there is some medical care for any complications. There are many reasons for heart failure as such: heart defects present at birth, heart attack, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeats, enlarged or thick and stiff heart muscle, alcoholism, anemia, etc. The main two types of heart transplantation surgery are Heterotopic and Orthotopic Heart Transplant.
