In this important volume, Dr. Julien Hoffman analyzes a vast body of literature and, in some cases, uncovers information that belies conventional beliefs.  \u003cp\u003eBy searching the early literature as well as more recent reports and data that have previously been unavailable or difficult to obtain, he presents evidence that can help you decide on a course of treatment and more accurately anticipate results. The conditions are grouped into five main sections: Surgical Procedures, Left-to-Right Shunts, Obstructive Lesions, Miscellaneous Aortic Root Lesions, and Right-to-Left Shunts. For each lesion discussed, Dr. Hoffman:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDefines the lesion and gives information about its frequency, familial or syndromic associations and associated congenital heart lesions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReviews the pathological anatomy and physiology in relation to outcomes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSummarizes what is known of the natural history, mainly in terms of survival; where applicable, he compares the results of surgery to the results of interventional catheter-based treatment\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis scrupulously objective examination of what is likely to happen to patients with or without treatment will help cardiologists and cardiac surgeons achieve better outcomes from currently available treatments and encourage the development of better treatments for CHD.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47990293168357,"sku":"NP9781405179270","price":336.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781405179270.jpg?v=1761787235","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/the-natural-and-unnatural-history-of-congenital-heart-disease-isbn-9781405179270","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
