Surgery of Coronary Artery Disease (Arnold Publication)

After describing the background to modern practice in the surgical management of coronary artery disease and outlining how this might evolve in the future, the book consideres the angiographic anatomy and pathophysiology of coronary artery disease, putting the basic science that underlies disease development in context for the surgeon and cardiologists. Methods of patient investigation and selection are given detailed consideration, including the role of nuclear imaging techniques and MRI. Operative surgical techniques, including minimally invasive and beating heart surgery, are described in detail. Coverage includes anesthetic, peri- and post-operative issues, and a consideration of complications and their management. Surgery in acute ischemia and repair of ischemically damaged ventricles are described. Symptomatic and survival outcomes are discussed, and recommendations for post-operative risk modification are included.
