The Complete Reference for Scimitar Syndrome: Anatomy, Epidemiology, Diagnosis and Treatment gives the complete picture of this rare syndrome that is usually treated with tactics such as imaging. The book goes beyond imaging, providing a pathological and clinical description of this rare syndrome. All aspects beginning with development, clinical presentation, current surgical options (including recent techniques) and indications to treat patients based on current results coming from multicenter study experiences are included. This book is a must-have reference for all cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, thoracic surgeons, pathologists, physicians, residents and students involved in Scimitar Syndrome cases.
