"Cardiac Surgery in the Adult guides residents and practicing surgeons through diagnosis, treatment and management as well as operative strategy, decision-making, and technique in adult cardiac surgery. Developments in this field are constant and are in line with the surgical trends at large: less-invasive surgery with faster recovery times. Developments in this field include the use of robotic surgery, minimally invasive valve and coronary artery bypass surgery, stem-cell induced regenerative medicine, tissue engineering and more, all of which are discussed and completely updated. Trends also take into account the demographics of the patient with an eye toward cross-training the surgeon in endovascular skills by including topics such as percutaneous intervention and endovascular graft technology."--Provided by publisher.

Review:
"The DVD is especially valuable....This is a great resource for medical professionals involved in the care of patients with cardiac surgical diseases. It certainly is a "must have" for trainees in cardiothoracic surgery as well as for more experienced practitioners who desire a reliable update from world renowned leaders in the field....This is a needed update and the book certainly stands tall among successful similar textbooks...for the amount of information it provides as well as the prestigious level of the contributors. It is a reliable and updated resource that, despite the wealth of data, remains easily readable and well organized and illustrated. The DVD is a fascinating new feature and a significant step toward a better understanding of modern surgical techniques. 5 Stars!"--Doody's Review Service (Doody's 2008-11-18)
