Fig 1 (A) The SVC, IVC, hemiazygous and pulmonary veins were identified by forceps, and a silk ligature was used to ligate vascular inlets. (B) The pulmonary artery was sutured end-to-side to the IVC, while the ascending aorta was sutured in a similar fashion to the abdominal aorta. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /S (99) )

Fig 2 Continuous telemetric monitoring of abdominal heart xenotransplants: (A) immediately after implantation, the heart was in a tachycardiac, narrow complexed rhythm; (B) on postoperative day 6, the heart rate was slower and demonstrated broadening and decreasing amplitudes of the QRS complexes; and (C) on postoperative day 7, bradycardia with low QRS amplitudes correlated with rejection of the graft.
