Summary
In spite of the fact that the post-myocardial infarction survival rate has improved with recent medical advances, reduced heart function attributed to irreversible loss of viable cardiomyocytes is still a major clinical problem. The aim of the current study is to determine whether intramyocardial injection of autologous CD133+ bone marrow stem cells yields a functional benefit in addition to coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery in patients with chronic ischemic coronary artery disease.
