Summary:

This clinical casebook is comprised of surgical cases involving the most important cardiovascular diseases in a concise, easy-to-read format. Each chapter is a case that opens with a unique clinical presentation, followed by a description of the diagnosis, assessment and management techniques used to treat it. Additionally, each chapter features a section of questions and answers about relevant aspects related to the diagnosis and treatment of the addressed disease. It features 40 surgical cases in the following thematic areas: Aortic Disease, Arrhythmias, Cardiac Tumors, Coronary Insufficiency, Congenital Heart Disease, Endovascular Therapies, Heart Failure, Heart Transplantation, Mechanical Circulatory Support, Pericardial Disease, Pulmonary Embolism and Valvular Heart Disease. Cardiovascular Surgery - A Clinical Casebook provides excellent real-world strategies regarding the diagnosis and surgical approach to heart diseases. The book will be of great interest to medical students, surgical residents, clinical fellows, heart surgeons and other practitioners involved in the care of patients with cardiac illness.
