The Pearls and Pitfalls Section at the end of each chapter gives clinically important details that may be missed in other textbooks, and allows all cardiac surgeons to benefit from the years of experience of established experts, many of whom developed the operations they are describing. Thus, we were especially pleased when we were asked to revise the first edition. Several new techniques have developed since the publication of the first Atlas, such as percutaneous mitral valve repair and transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Other methods, such as aortic valve repair, have become a more standard method to treat aortic valve insufficiency. Chapters on these techniques and others are included in this new edition of the Atlas. Although many chapters are similar to those found in the previous edition, all were rewritten. Several chapters were completely rewritten by new authors, not because the authors of the previous chapters did not do an excellent job, but to give a novel perspective of the surgical treatment of the cardiovascular conditions. Because some operations, such as pulmonary end- arterectomy and surgery for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, are only performed routinely in several centers, we decided to include chapters on these operations. Minimally invasive techniques of coronary artery surgery and aortic and mitral valve surgery are emphasized in the new edition. As in the previous edition, the treatment of aortic disease is covered extensively. To make room for new chapters, some old chapters unfortunately had to be deleted. Although the purpose of the Atlas is not to give an exhaustive description of all cardiac operations, the vast majority of adult cardiac operations currently performed are described in sufficient detail to allow young surgeons to learn the techniques and help established surgeons to refine their methods according to experts in the field. The editors of this edition of Atlas of Cardiac Surgical Techniques are indebted to their teachers and surgical colleagues. We hope the second edition will honor the legacy of our teachers and be as well received as was the first edition. Frank W. Sellke, MD Marc Ruel, MD, MPH ix
