A little girl from Brisbane living with a congenital heart defect has been given new hope after groundbreaking research has developed a world-first alternative to heart transplants. Riley Green was born with dextrocardia, a rare congenital heart disease that saw her rushed off to the newborn intensive care unit just moments after she was born. “By the time I got to the NICU, Riley had been intubated and sedated to keep her alive,” Green’s mother Samara said.
” Scientists from the Heart Research Institute have given hope to people like Samara after lead researcher Dr Carmine Gentile developed a world-first alternative to heart transplants and invasive heart surgeries, using “mini hearts” built with a bioprinter. The lab-created tissue forms a patch, similar to a Band-Aid, used to replace or repair damaged areas of the heart.
