Univentricular Congenital Heart Defects and the Fontan Circulation: Practical Manual for Patient Management

Editat de Paul Clift, Konstantinos Dimopoulos, Annalisa Angelini
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 ian 2024
This book provides a concise, practically applicable guide to the management of patients born with a univentricular heart defect. It describes the anatomy and epidemiology of the univentricular heart, while guidance is provided on how to manage both fetal and neonatal patients with this defect, as well as those in later childhood and adulthood. The utilization of the Fontan operation for patients with a univentricular heart is described in detail. Management of early and late Fontan failure is also discussed, and the pregnant patient is also described, enabling the reader to develop a deep understanding of how to manage these patients in their daily practice.
Univentricular Congenital Heart Defects: Practical Manual for Patient Management comprehensively reviews the management of univentricular heart defects and the use of Fontan-type surgery. It is a valuable resource for the experienced practitioner seeking a manual on the latest available techniques and for trainees who want to develop a thorough understanding of how to manage patients with these congenital heart defects.
