E-book

E-book

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.

Základné princípy laparoskopickej chirurgie

Marek Šoltés - Jozef Radoňak

Laparoscopic surgery today represents the standard and, in many respects, a preferred modality of surgical treatment. The dynamics of its global expansion, enabled by advancements in biomedical technologies and the development of global information and communication channels, is unprecedented in the history of surgery. Currently, there is virtually no abdominal operation that is not performed laparoscopically, with laparoscopic procedures often being the method of choice.

Despite—or perhaps because of—the unprecedentedly rapid penetration of laparoscopic surgeries into everyday surgical practice, universally accepted technical standards are still lacking in many respects. The high variability of procedural approaches within individual laparoscopic operations stems more from the traditions of specific workplaces than from evidence-based medicine. This situation is further influenced by the development of new and revived concepts such as mini-laparoscopy, SILS (Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery), NOTES (Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery), and their hybrid combinations with classical laparoscopy.

The aim of this monograph is to draw the attention of the professional community back to the fundamental principles of laparoscopic surgery, which should serve as a foundation for the effective and safe performance of laparoscopic operations, as well as a basis for a critical stance towards fashionable innovative trends.
