Objective To investigate how to establish stable mice cervical heart transplantation model. Methods Totally, 40 male C57 mice with the age of 6-8 weeks and weight of 19-24 g were randomly divided into recipients and donors (n=20 in each group). Mice cervical heart transplantation model was established by connecting the ascending aorta of donors to the right cervical common artery of recipients through end to side anastmosis and the pulmonary artery of donors to the right external jugular vein of recipients through end to end anastmosis. Results More than 95% recipients survived after surgery. Cold ischemia time was 15±5 min, warm ischemia time 23±6 min, and the whole operation took about 55±15 min. The recipients survived more than 30 d with functional heart grafts. Histologically, there was no difference between the heart graft one month after the transplantion and the normal heart. Conclusion Cervical heart transplantation of mice model is reliable and feasible, which is easy to monitor the survival condition of heart graft by visual examination and palpation, which will benefit the basic research in transplantation field.
