Abstract

Hemodynamic studies were carried out on a series of rats undergoing heart‐lung transplantation according to the technique of Sun Lee. The results suggested a new hypothesis of blood circulation in the heart‐lung block by demonstrating the lack of necessity for the venovenous anastomosis. A new technique, with just one aortoaortic anastomosis, was therefore evaluated. Its value and reliability in a series of 30 rats are discussed.

## Abstract In a new simplified model, heterotopic heart transplants in rats function normally with only an aortoaortic anastomosis when one of the 5 lobes of the lungs is attached to the transplant. If an attempt is made to remove the remaining lobe of the lung, the heart dilates, fibrillates, and

## Abstract Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin produced by different fungi. The most pronounced adverse effect of OTA is hepatonephrotoxicity. Melatonin (MEL) has an antioxidant effect and has free‐radical scavenger properties. The effects of OTA on heart and lung tissue and possible ameliorating ef
