CLINICAL MAIN PROJECTS
The Division of Cardiovascular Surgery
1. Complete coronary revascularization (CABG) for patients with ischemic heart disease, and improvement of cardiac function by bone marrow implantation.
2. Improvement of QOL with preservation of patient’s own valve by repair and Maze procedure in valvular heart disease.
3. Development of surgical and regenerative therapeutic modality for improvement of QOL in patients with congestive heart disease.
4. Improvement of operative results in thoracic aortic surgery especially for the elderly and aortic rupture.
5. Establishment of less invasive surgical treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm with minimally invasive surgery and endovascular treatment.
6. Promotion of less invasive hybrid therapy combination with intravascular therapy and surgical revascularization for peripheral arterial disease.

CURRENT RESEARCH TOPICS
(see also http://www.shinshu-u.ac.jp/graduate/medicine/master/m-science/geka.html)
Our major topics of research are surgical oncology, gene therapy, regeneration therapy, organ transplantation, artificial organ, and response to surgical intervention. Our goal is to perform translational research from bench to bed side in the broad spectrum of interdisciplinary approach.
Surgical Oncology Group
1. Mechanism of tumorigenesis
2. The relation of gene expression and the clinical results in cancer
3. Mechanism of tolerance of cancer to anti-cancer drugs
4. Anaerobic bacteria for cancer gene therapy (see also http://www.anaeropharma.co.jp/index_e.html)[i1]
5. Cardiac tumor
Transplantation-Regeneration Therapy Group
1. Development of regeneration therapy for ischemic legs and myocardium using bone marrow transplantation and anaerobic bacteria
2. Mechanism and prevention of chronic cardiac rejection
3. Development of less invasive cardiopulmonary bypass system
Response to Surgical Intervention Group
1. Mechanism of lung injury and development of method to prevent it
2. Developement of new devise and material for VATS.
