An Illustrated Guide to Congenital Heart Disease: From Diagnosis to Treatment – From Fetus to Adult

This book combines an exceptional wealth of precise, exquisite schematic drawings and high-quality images with clear explanatory text to provide readers with a crisp and clear understanding of all aspects of congenital heart disease, from diagnosis to treatment and from the fetus to the adult. In format, the book appears similar to an extensive collection of case reports covering all types of congenital heart disease, including complex lesions such as single ventricles and atrial isomerism. For each lesion, the illustrations are placed before the text so the reader can gain a quick and general overview before going into more detail. The contents are as practical and concise as possible. The intention is that, despite its size, the book will serve as a handy reference for cardiologists, surgeons, intensivists, obstetricians specializing in fetal sonography, nurses, trainees, students, researchers, and even patients and their families. This is a “must-have” bedside reference in the cardiac ward, the ICU, and the fetal sonography room and will be valuable in outpatient clinics.
