As a Cardiothoracic Surgery PA, this book is indispensable. Even my surgeons steal this book off my desk to brush up on some anatomy and to refresh themselves on complicated cases. I would highly, highly recommend this book. Each page has a detailed picture of the procedure, and the opposite page has the explainations (captions) to the pictures. TONS of pictures, really well done.
Absolutely the best book for Cardiothoracic fellows and attending cardiovascular surgeons. The book offers step by step description of the most common cardiovascular surgeries. It is well researched and discusses the different views of surgical techniques, offering surgeons alternatives. The illustrations are great and depict each step in each surgery discussed.
This book is te perfect companion for cardiac surgery students. Lots of pictures and drawings, very concise text.Great for review before tests.
