Abstract

Article fruit of the Research Project developed at the University Center Montes Belos University - UniMB, Veterinary Medicine course - Comparative Study of the Cardiological Profile between Dogs and Men: parameters of the main cardiopathies and anatomical similarities. The specific objectives are to reassess the proximity between the classes hominidae and canidae regarding the cardiological aspect. The transplanted patients are at risk of rejection, for this reason the intense follow-up of immunosuppressants and medical observations with laboratory follow-up to control the immune response. The expectation of heart transplantation is based on 3D with the patient's own cells is to solve a problem of rejection of the transplanted limb / organ and access to the organ to transplant.
