Article Synopsis
- Ectopic hand transplantation is a rare but innovative surgical technique used for severe trauma and amputation cases.

- Despite some complications, the patient recovered well post-surgery and regained sensation and movement in his reconstructed hand.
Background: Elevated plasma levels of Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] are recognized as a significant risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular disease. However, there are limited data regarding association between Lp(a) and recurrent heart failure (HF) in patients with chronic HF caused by coronary heart disease (CHD).
Objective: Elevated levels of Lp(a) might have a prognostic impact on recurrent HF in patients with chronic HF caused by CHD.
