Il dottor Gianfranco Campalani, uno dei cardiochirurghi più importanti dell'Irlanda del Nord, nostro connazionale, è affetto da SM dal 1986 e, fra le altre cose, non riusciva a camminare per più di 50 metri. Tre anni fa, durante una visita in Italia, conosce il professor Zamboni, che gli propone di far parte della sua sperimentazione. Il cardiochirurgo si sottopone ad angioplastica dilatativa e cinque ore dopo l'intervento, ha potuto camminare senza il bastone, la sua schiena è più forte.
L'anno scorso, il dottor Campalani si è accorto che la sua condizione era peggiorata. Ha chiesto ai suoi colleghi di Belfast di controllare le sue giugulari: purtroppo si erano richiuse di nuovo. Ad ottobre scorso si è sottoposto di nuovo ad angioplastica e le sue condizioni sono migliorate.
Ancora c'è molto da fare, "abbiamo bisogno di ulteriori indagini", dice il cardiochirurgo, ma il professor Zamboni ha dato luce ad un nuovo modo di vedere la patologia e nuove speranze per i malati di SM.

The heart surgeon undergoes angioplasty dilated and five hours after surgery, was able to walk without his stick, his back is stronger.
Last year, Dr. Campalani he realized that his condition had worsened. He asked his colleagues in Belfast to control her jugular, but unfortunately it was closed again. In October last year he underwent angioplasty again and his condition improved.
There is still much to do, "we need further investigation," says the heart surgeon, but Professor Zamboni gave birth to a new way of seeing the disease and new hope for MS patients.
