Description
Book SynopsisThe aim of this book is to provide surgeons with a source of reference for the use of alternative conduits and surgical coronary revascularization methods. A discussion of the standard bypass conduits is presented, in addition to a discussion of the alternative venous and arterial bypass conduits.
Trade Review"The push to revascularize the heart with as many arterial grafts as possible is apparent. Grooters and Nishida have provided a complete and thorough discussion involving all the techniques to accomplish this as effectively as possible...all that any coronary artery surgeon could want to know about this subject. The editors have provided an excellent addition to the literature and all coronary surgeons, cardiologists, and anyone interested in the field of vascular reconstruction will enjoy this book. The bibliography alone is worth the price." Journal of Cardiac Surgery
