Features: Cardiovascular diseases are one of the common conditions affecting human lifespan and quality of life. The development of cardiovascular surgery has made significant contributions to human health. In recent years, cardiovascular surgery in China has developed rapidly, but there is still a certain gap compared to developed countries in terms of the depth and breadth of diagnosis and treatment. Mutual learning and reference are urgently needed. Under the organization and leadership of Professor Wu Qingyu from the Department of Surgery at Fuwai Hospital, rich clinical experience has been accumulated in surgical treatment of coronary heart disease, valve disease, congenital heart disease, and major vessel diseases. The "Surgery of the Heart" edited by Professor Wu Qingyu comprehensively reflects the progress and experience of the department in managing difficult and complex cardiovascular diseases.
The book is divided into 6 parts and 70 chapters, including basic knowledge, congenital heart disease, acquired valve disease, ischemic heart disease, aortic disease, and other heart diseases. It provides a relatively comprehensive introduction to the knowledge, experience, and techniques in cardiovascular surgery. The basic section focuses on the diagnosis of heart disease, anesthesia, extracorporeal circulation, myocardial protection, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In the specific sections, various surgical procedures and common complications of heart surgery are systematically described, aiming to improve surgical outcomes and reduce or avoid surgical complications.
The book contains 1 million words and is accompanied by nearly a thousand exquisite illustrations, making it convenient for readers to read and reference.
