About this book

Robotic surgery is currently devoid of adequate didactic material necessary to facilitate daily application in cardiothoracic surgical practice. This book represents the definitive atlas that will lead both the practicing and new cardiothoracic surgeons in these methods. It will define the operative pathway of each procedure, from beginning to end, for surgeons who wish to be a complete robotic cardiac surgeon and include hints and procedural pitfalls derived from the experiences of chapter contributors. The book will be illustrated with high quality illustrations and color photographs from surgical operations where appropriate. Leading surgeons have contributed to the book and provided sample illustrations for their respective chapters. Anesthetic and cardiopulmonary support preparation for each operation will be included and selected references will be provided to emphasize evidence-based outcomes.

Reviews

From the book reviews:

“More than just an atlas of robotic cardiac surgery, this book is a comprehensive discussion of the application of robotic surgery and the history of its recent developments. … The audience includes cardiac surgeons and their teams. … This is an excellent book, written by experts in robotic cardiac surgery. It is a wonderful addition to the literature and should be of great use to surgeons interested in this new and exciting field.” (Michael Bates, Doody’s Book Reviews, November, 2014)
