Description

Written by the pioneer of atrial fibrillation surgery, Dr. James Cox, Cox's Surgical Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation is the authoritative guide to the fundamentals of atrial fibrillation, the evolution of surgical ablation, and current techniques of atrial fibrillation ablation. In this ground-breaking reference, Dr. Cox, along with co-editors Drs. Patrick M. McCarthy, S. Chris Malaisrie and other national and international authorities, defines the principles of atrial fibrillation and other cardiac arrhythmias and inspires other medical professionals to develop further innovations in the treatment of this disease. The result is a single, trustworthy source of knowledge that provides both practitioners and researchers in the field of cardiac arrhythmias with a common understanding of atrial fibrillation and its surgical treatment.- Corrects common misperceptions and misunderstandings of atrial fibrillation and clarifies the research on atrial fibrillation to date, establishing the academic standard on the principles of atrial fibrillation and other cardiac arrhythmias- Shares the knowledge and experience of Drs. Cox, McCarthy, and Malaisrie regarding the fundamentals of the pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation and the evolution of ablative therapy for atrial fibrillation, as well as current knowledge and research, authored by renowned worldwide authorities in the field today- Describes the prior 20 years of surgery for cardiac arrhythmias that led to the eventual successful surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation. These procedures include surgery for the WPW Syndrome, AV Node Reentry Tachycardia, Automatic Right and Left Atrial Tachycardias, and Ischemic and Non-Ischemic Ventricular Tachycardias- Features approximately 500 high-quality illustrations, including diagrams, line drawings, and photographs- Provides access to numerous procedural videos, including the techniques of Cox-Maze III, minimally invasive Cox CryoMaze-III, Cox-Maze IV, pulmonary vein isolation, hybrid procedures, and left atrial appendage closure- Any additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date
