thorough, up-to-date coverage of operative strategy, decision making, technique, and pre- and post-operative management
for treating the adult cardiac patient.



Editor Lawrence H. Cohn takes you through the optimal treatment of congenital, acquired, infectious, and traumatic
diseases of the heart and great vessels. The book begins with a history of cardiac surgery and basic cardiac science,
then moves into all types of cardiac surgery, providing both practicing surgeons and residents insight into the very
latest surgical protocols.



Presented in full color for the first time, the fourth edition of Cardiac Surgery in the Adult is aligned with up-to-
the-minute developments in the field including recent surgical trends in minimally invasive cardiac surgery.
Unparalleled in both scope and clinical rigor, the fourth edition contains 70 chapters that highlight every important
topic in cardiovascular surgery.
