Abstract:
The invention provides a method of creating an atrioventricular bypass tract for a heart comprising growing mesenchymal stem cells into a strip with two ends, and attaching one end of the strip onto the atrium of the heart, and attaching the other end of the strip to the ventricle of the heart. By this attachment, a tract is created that connects the atrium to the ventricle to provide a path for electrical signals generated by the sinus node to propagate across the tract and excite the ventricle.
