This clinical casebook is comprised of surgical cases involving the most important cardiovascular diseases in a concise, easy-to-read format.

The Q&A section will broaden discussion and increase the title's pedagogical value. The casebook 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, and mechanical issues.
