Allogeneic mouse model of peritoneal heart transplant is a microscopic surgery on small animal with complex techniques. For a beginner, a learning curve of this surgical technique has to be experienced. The learning curve contains three stages:(1) to be familiar with the local anatomy of either donor or recipient mouse; (2) to be capable of collecting donor heart and well preparing the major peritoneal vessels of recipient; (3) to be skillful in the anastomosis of major vessels. The bottleneck of the learning curve is the valid skill of vascular anastomosis. The stepwise essentials are to "understand, be familiar, be accurate, and be quick" in the learning curve.
