Abstract
The success rate of patch implant was associated with infarction size and location, and may be related to arrhythmic substrate. Experimental MI created by the second DA embolization is a feasible model for investigation of tissue-engineered cardiac patch implantation. This large-animal model is also suitable for study of cell therapy via endocardial catheter-based approaches or open surgical methods.
