-
- Provides comprehensive coverage of all areas of cardiac surgery, including coronary artery, valvular, pericardial, and congenital heart disease; cardiac tumors; heart failure, mechanical circulatory support, and cardiac transplantation; cardiac rhythm disturbances; and thoracic aorta disease. The Congenital Heart Disease section features 30 chapters covering all congenital cardiac malformations, from the simplest to the most complex, and includes new chapters on anatomic considerations and nomenclature for congenital heart disease and congenital heart surgery in resource-limited settings. These are accompanied by chapters on general considerations across the field: anatomy, hypothermia and circulatory arrest, cardiopulmonary bypass, myocardial management, anesthesia and postoperative care, cardiac reoperations, cardiac imaging, generating new knowledge, and quality assurance
- Covers the latest advancements and practices with thorough updates throughout
- Shares the knowledge and expertise of a new, global team of internationally renowned contributing authors selected based on their extensive expertise in each area
- Includes for each condition: definition, historical note, pathogenesis and morphology, clinical features and diagnostic criteria, natural history, technique of operation, special features of postoperative care, results, indications for operations, and special situations and controversies—all designed to help you make the most well-informed decisions and achieve optimal outcomes
- Contains 100+ new illustrations for a better visual understanding of critical information, and detailed flow charts, diagrams, and graphs throughout
- Includes an eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook that allows you to access to all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability
