Tomáš Toporcer Adrián Kolesár

Heart Surgery for Medical Students provides a systematic and clinically oriented overview of the principal areas of cardiac surgery, intended primarily for sixth-year medical students preparing for the final state examination in surgery. It is based on the original Slovak edition, which has been translated, professionally updated, adapted to contemporary international medical terminology, and supplemented with a new chapter dedicated to heart transplantation. The textbook covers cardiopulmonary bypass, ischemic heart disease, valvular and aortic disease, cardiac arrhythmias, congenital heart disease, traumatic injuries of the heart and great vessels, mechanical circulatory support, and heart transplantation. Selected sections have been revised in accordance with current international clinical practice guidelines. The text emphasizes indications for surgical treatment, fundamental operative strategies, and principles of perioperative care. Its aim is to provide students with a concise framework for understanding the role of cardiac surgery in contemporary multidisciplinary cardiovascular care.

University scripts “Visceral pathology of vascular origin“analyze one of the most challenging vascular regions, the aorta and the visceral aortic branches, from the surgical perspective. The diagnostic and the treatment aneurysms of the abdominal aorta are dedicated to the first chapter. Early diagnostic and operative treatment is crucial in the treatment of ruptured aneurysms of the abdominal aorta. Shortening of the interval between the patient’s arrival with ruptured aneurysm of the abdominal aorta into the hospital and the beginning of the operation decreased the perioperative mortality. This shortening, together with the use of the cell savers, led to the dropping of perioperative mortality from 50% to 20%. The diagnostics and surgical treatment of the acute and chronic occlusion of the aorta and iliac arteries are analyzed in the second chapter. In this chapter, the focus is given to the aortobifemoral bypass as “the gold standard“ of the surgical therapy of aortoiliac atherosclerosis. The management of acute mesenteric ischemia is the content of the third chapter. Acute mesenteric ischemia is a severe condition with high mortality. The problem of acute mesenterial ischemia is a delayed diagnostic that is the reason for poor therapeutical outcomes of the disease. The possible imagine studies and operations used in treating acute mesenteric ischemia are brought in this chapter. Chronic mesenteric ischemia leads to cachexia. The diagnosis of chronic mesenterial ischemia is one of the most demanding, and surgical therapy used in the treatment of chronic mesenterial ischemia also belongs to the most challenging operations. Left-sided colon ischemia belongs to the severe complications of the aortoiliac reconstructions. Left-sided colon ischemia has a high mortality. In the prevention of the left-sided colon, ischemia is preserving at least one internal iliac artery. The complex diagnostics treatment of intraabdominal compressive syndromes as Dunbar syndróme, „Nutcracker“ syndróme a Wilkie syndróme, analyzed in the last chapter.
