© 2018 Russian Transplant Society. All rights reserved. Heart transplantation is the «gold standard» of treatment severe heart failure. Patient survival after heart transplantation has improved dramatically since the availability of calcineurin inhibitor (CNIs). However, nephrotoxicity of CNIs has been largely responsible for the progressive development of renal dysfunction and reduces long-term patient survival. Use mTOR inhibitor in immunosuppressive therapy may improve renal function when everolimus is administered associated with a progressive reduction of CNIs. The purpose of our report is to demonstrate the successful case of conversion of the recipient after heart transplantation to everolimus and to evaluate the effectiveness of this drug during the observation year after heart transplantation.
