Tokyo Women’s Medical University has a long history with leading development in the field of cardiovascular surgery in Japan, including ventricular assist device (VAD) and heart transplantation (HT). Our institute has performed implantable VAD implantation in 73 patients with refractory heart failure as a bridge to transplantation. The long-term survival rate of that showed 94%, 85%, and 61% in 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively. In addition, orthotopic HT has been provided for 38 patients, with survival after both 10 and 20 years shown to be 85%.

In this era of destination therapy, it is considered that VAD and HT treatments will become standardized options for heart failure cases even in Japan. To achieve this target, we re-organized our heart team named “BIND” in 2018, providing a more seamless multidisciplinary approach. We believe that these actions can contribute to the development of HT in our country.
