We report the case of a patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy and refractory ventricular tachycardia who underwent successful orthotopic heart transplantation and concurrent aortic valve replacement with a donor heart that had displayed moderate aortic valve regurgitation.<\/jats:p>\n        <jats:p>The patient was a 71-year-old man with a history of advanced heart failure, 5-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting, and paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia. He was not a candidate for repeat revascularization or myocardial ablation, so he was placed on the heart-transplant list as status 1A. On intra-aortic balloon pump support, the patient waited 51 days for a donor match to be identified. Despite the donor heart's having moderate aortic valve regurgitation, the decision was made to use that heart. We performed a back-table aortic valve replacement with a 23-mm St. Jude Epic bioprosthesis, and then performed the orthotopic heart transplantation. The patient did well and was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 11.<\/jats:p>\n        <jats:p>This case indicates that expanding donor criteria to include otherwise healthy hearts with certain aortic valve defects is feasible, if surgical experience and expertise permit.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.14503\/thij-16-5789","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,27]],"date-time":"2017-04-27T16:57:48Z","timestamp":1493312268000},"page":"135-137","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Replacement in a Donor Heart before Orthotopic Heart Transplantation"],"prefix":"10.14503","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Manish","family":"Patel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Khashayar K.","family":"Vahdat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sriram","family":"Nathan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marija","family":"Petrovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pranav","family":"Loyalka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Biswajit","family":"Kar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Igor D.","family":"Gregoric","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5628","reference":[{"issue":"12","key":"i1526-6702-44-2-135-b1","series-title":"J Am Coll Cardiol","first-page":"1169","article-title":"Survival benefit from transplantation in patients listed for heart transplantation in the United States","volume":"63","year":"2014","unstructured":"Singh\n              TP\n            , MillirenCE, AlmondCS, GrahamD.\n          Survival benefit from transplantation in patients listed for heart transplantation in the United States.
