<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>With an emphasis on evidence-based outcomes, this definitive atlas of information on robotic techniques in cardiac surgery tracks the operative pathway for each procedure and includes a wealth of high-quality illustrations alongside trusty expert advice.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Robotic surgery is currently devoid of adequate didactic material necessary to facilitate daily application in cardiothoracic surgical practice. This book represents the definitive atlas that will lead both the practicing and new cardiothoracic surgeons in these methods. It will define the operative pathway of each procedure, from beginning to end, for surgeons who wish to be a complete robotic cardiac surgeon and include hints and procedural pitfalls derived from the experiences of chapter contributors. The book will be illustrated with high quality illustrations and color photographs from surgical operations where appropriate. Leading surgeons have contributed to the book and provided sample illustrations for their respective chapters. Anesthetic and cardiopulmonary support preparation for each operation will be included and selected references will be provided to emphasize evidence-based outcomes.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>This comprehensive atlas defines the role of robotic surgery in cardiac surgical practice and provides a wealth of practical didactic advice. The Editor has assembled a group of experts in the field to define the complete operative pathway of each procedure for surgeons who desire to become a complete robotic cardiac surgeon. To reduce the learning curve, the atlas includes hints and procedure pitfalls that are derived from the experiences of the chapter contributors. The most important cardiac operations, including valve repair and replacement as well as coronary surgery, are detailed but using the latest robotic methods.</p><p> </p><p><i>Atlas of Robotic Cardiac Surgery </i>is richly illustrated with the highest quality illustrations. Anaesthesia and cardiopulmonary support preparation for each operation is featured, and selected references have been provided to emphasize evidence-based outcomes from previously published data. As such, this book will influence and be essential reading for both practicing and trainee surgeons in minimally invasive and robotic cardiac surgery.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>From the book reviews: </p>"More than just an atlas of robotic cardiac surgery, this book is a comprehensive discussion of the application of robotic surgery and the history of its recent developments. ... The audience includes cardiac surgeons and their teams. ... This is an excellent book, written by experts in robotic cardiac surgery. It is a wonderful addition to the literature and should be of great use to surgeons interested in this new and exciting field." (Michael Bates, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2014)<br>
