Introduction: Despite many advances in the treatment of heart disease, particularly myocardial infarction, many patients with heart attacks catch chronic heart failure and are associated with this disease until death. Several therapeutic procedures including drug-therapy, heart transplantation and heart’s inside- and outside equipment are used to improve the quality of life of patients which are very expensive for patients and hospitals. By researches in genetics, tissue engineering and cell therapy, hoping to save these patients has increased. The purpose of this review study was to analyze and clarify the role of stem cells in treating heart failures. Conclusion: Researches and clinical trials show that during 4 to 6 months after transplantation of stem cells to the heart, left ventricular function increases between 7 to 9%, volume of end systolic decreases and blood supply and vessel construction promotes in stroke region . Moreover, in prospective and case-control studies, the efficiency of this method proved and no dangerous arrhythmia or tumor has been observed.
