The last mentioned of these procedures was introduced by Vineberg and associates, and they have reported encouraging results both in the experimental animal and in man.7,8 Their experimental findings have been confirmed by some,2 whereas others have obtained different results.3,5,6,8 In all of the work yet reported on arterial implants into the myocardium the implants have been placed into the left ventricle. In this communication the studies concern similar arterial implants into
