| Core Tip |
Our study investigates the impact of donor and recipient age on heart transplant outcomes. We report higher mortality when older donors (> 55 years) are combined with older recipients (> 60 years) especially in the early post-operative period. Despite the increased early risk, these donors remain crucial given the organ shortage. This work highlights the need for refined selection criteria and tailored management strategies. |
