10 years of intracoronary and intramyocardial bone marrow stem cell therapy of the heart: from the methodological origin to clinical practice

J Am Coll Cardiol. 2011 Sep 6;58(11):1095-104. Strauer BE, Steinhoff G. Source Heinrich-Heine University of Duesseldorf, Duesseldorf, Germany. Abstract Intracoronary and intramyocardial stem cell therapy aim at the repair of compromised myocardium thereby–as a causal treatment–preventing ventricular remodeling and improving overall performance. Since the first-in-human use of bone marrow stem cells (BMCs) after acute myocardial…
