A man who is the ninth recipient of a fully implantable AbioCor artificial heart was in critical but stable condition yesterday after a 10-hour operation Wednesday at Jewish Hospital.

It was the second AbioCor implant in about two weeks at the hospital, after nine months had gone by without any anywhere. Officials of Abiomed, manufacturer of the experimental device, said it demonstrates that the clinical trial is back on track.
