Urgent heart retransplantation in an adult patient with anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy after diffuse large B-cell lymphoma – a case report

In the time of heart donor shortage it is of great importance to critically assess candidates for cardiac retransplantation. In this article we present a rare case of an adult patient who underwent successful urgent heart retransplantation due to severe toxic cardiomyopathy (anthracycline-induced) after posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) – diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
