What is another word for cardiac transplant?
Pronunciation: [kˈɑːdɪˌak tɹansplˈant] (IPA) 
Cardiac transplant, a surgical procedure that is performed to replace a diseased or damaged heart with a healthy one, has several synonyms that are commonly used in medical literature and discussions. These synonyms include heart transplant, cardiac transplantation, heart replacement surgery, and cardiac grafting. However, all of these terms essentially refer to the same procedure in which a donor heart is surgically implanted into the recipient's chest cavity. While cardiac transplantation is a highly complex and risky surgery, it can be a life-saving treatment option for patients with end-stage heart failure or other severe cardiac conditions.
