About this book
Reviews
“In a current training environment that requires more simulation and preparation outside of the operating room, this book and videos offer the very best instruction for complex congenital heart surgery. … This is valuable for all clinicians involved in the treatment of congenital heart surgery patients, both in surgery and in the perioperative period. For trainees, students and medical staff, this book offers a superb look into the operative approach for the correction of these complex lesions.” (Michael Bates, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2015)
“This is an amazing book, with real-life, full-color photos of a large number of actual surgical procedures performed on the heart and other parts of the cardiovascular system of patients, particularly children. … It’s well organized, thorough in coverage, containing a lot of details, and most importantly, provides the photos and videos that are so critical to thorough learning and understanding of life-saving surgical procedures.” (Nano Khilnani, Biz India Online News, bizindia.net, August, 2015)
