Prof. Vytautas Jonas Sirvydis Cardiosurgeon

Cell and tissue engineering is one of the latest fields in regenerative medicine. Tissue engineering makes it possible to adjust new inventions to individual organism. This is also applied in cardiology using stem cells and biological heart valves. Heart valves are created by using patients cells, therefore the possibility for transplant rejection is minimum. Cell therapy is also used for repairing damaged myocardium tissue after a stroke.
