Conclusies • IC transfer van autologe BMSCs is veilig en leidt niet tot laattijdige significante nevenwerkingen. • Na tijdige reperfusie van een myocardinfarct met een matige graad van ventrikel schade hebben BMSCs variabele effecten op herstel van globale LV functie, doch verbeteren ze op significante wijze de regionale functie (waar schade is opgetreden). • De uitdaging voor de toekomst bestaat erin om na te gaan hoe de geobserveerde paracriene effecten van BMSC kunnen vertaald worden tot een klinische meerwaarde voor AMI patienten met een ernstigere initiele linker ventrikel beschadiging.
