Plastinated Pediatric Heart/Lung Block

This is a plastinated pediatric heart/lung block that was donated for research. The donor was a child younger than one years old with no cardiac dysfunction. This model shows the close interconnectedness of the heart and lungs within the body. This heart uses reference ID: Heart0367. We partner with [LifeSource](https://www.life-source.org/) to receive donated organs deemed not viable for transplant.
