Abstract
A 57-year-old man with postischemic dilated cardiomyopathy underwent a heart transplant at our center in February 2013. His early postoperative course was complicated by primary graft non-function requiring intensive care treatment. Six days after transplantation, he developed severe hypoperfusion that required maximal extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), placement of an intra-aortic balloon pump, and vasoactive drug support.
