This atlas depicts and describes catheter-based interventions across the entire pediatric age range, from fetal life through to early adulthood, with the aim of providing an illustrated step-by-step guide that will help the reader to master these techniques and apply them in everyday practice. Clear instruction is offered on a wide range of procedures, including vascular access, fetal interventions, valve dilatation, angioplasty, stent implantation, defect closure, defect creation, valve implantation, hybrid approaches, and other miscellaneous procedures. The atlas complements the previously published handbook, Cardiac Catheterization for Congenital Heart Disease, by presenting a wealth of photographs, images, and drawings selected or designed to facilitate the planning, performance, and evaluation of diagnostic and interventional procedures in the field of congenital heart disease. It will assist in the safe, efficient performance of these procedures, in decision making, and in the recognition and treatment of complications.

Full-color illustrations and procedural videos guide you step by step through every interventional procedure you’re likely to perform.

Rapid developments in congenital heart disease diagnosis and treatment have allowed children with congenital heart disease to survive to adulthood. In particular, advances in pediatric cardiology during the 2000s have shifted the majority of congenital heart disease-related mortalities to adulthood. Consequently, there are now hundreds of thousands of adults with congenital heart defects worldwide. In the near future, cardiologists are expected to encounter a steady increase in patients at grown-up congenital heart centers. This atlas includes representations of common congenital heart defects and complete sets of surgical or transcatheter interventions with the most recent acquisitions. The atlas also provides a selection of diagrams (more than 200 diagrammatic heart figures) from the cardiac catheterization laboratory of a pediatric or grown-up cardiology unit that can be easily modified by various software programs. With the addition of hemodynamic data acquired during cardiac catheterization, the diagrams become accurate anatomical and physiological reports. Simple line or symbol-based drawings, rather than artistic illustrations, have been used in figures to facilitate sharing and customization. In conclusion, I believe that this atlas is a necessary reference with great utility for cardiologists, heart surgeons, radiologists, clinical staff, medical students, nursing personnel, patients and their families. Note:There is currently only one diagrammatic atlas in the medical world (Mullins Atlas, Publisher: Wiley-Liss, 1991, product dimensions: 9.6 x 1.4 x 11.4 inches and $750.00). There have been many new interventional procedures and surgical techniques in the field of pediatric and adult Cardiology in the 21st century. Since this atlas was prepared nearly 30 years ago, it naturally needs revision today.https://www.amazon.com/Congenital-Heart-Disease-Diagrammatic-Atlas/dp/0471588172

Comprises 167 line drawings of congenital heart defects--providing a method of reporting the results of the various cardiac imaging modalities in a detailed, anatomically realistic way, and standardizing the often confusing nomenclature. With the addition of hemodynamic data acquired during cardiac catheterization, the diagrams become accurate and concise anatomical and physiological reports. The Atlas covers many variations and combinations of atrio-ventricular, veno-atrial, and ventriculo-arterial connections; cardiac positions; atrial situs; and left and right aortic arches. Diagrams are easily modified to illustrate any abnormality by using a technique demonstrated in the book. Each diagram comes in duplicate--one labelled, to serve as a reference; and one unlabelled, to be removed, photocopied, and modified.

The second edition of this handbook is an up-to-date guide to the application of catheter-based interventions across the entire age range of congenital heart disease patients, from fetal life through to adulthood. It considers the changes and improvements that have occurred during the last few years in terms of new procedures, new tools and devices (in particular in the field of valves), new imaging and pre-procedural strategies, such as 3D-printing, 3D- rotational angiography and fusion imaging. It provides readers with clear instructions on techniques for vascular access, valve dilatation, angioplasty, stent implantation, defect closure, defect creation, pulmonary valve implantation and on the hybrid approach, as well as on various other procedures. As in the first edition, topics are approached using a step-by-step format, ensuring that readers can immediately access the information relevant to their daily practice. Numerous explanatory figures and drawings are included in each chapter in order to further clarify how to plan, perform and evaluate diagnostic and interventional procedures in the field of congenital heart disease. It also highlights important tips and tricks that will assist health operators in achieving optimal outcomes, and includes an appendix with additional general equations and BSA, and oxygen consumption charts. This practical guide will be a valuable resource for surgeons and cardiologists in their daily clinical practice.

Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac CTA is a concise visual guide to the imaging of congenital heart disease in infants and children. The book focuses on the utilization of cardiac CTA imaging for pediatric patients as distinct from adult patients, with an emphasis on techniques for retrospective and prospective scanning, reduction of the radiation dose, and CT data processing and analysis. It also describes cardiac CTA evaluation search patterns to assess the complex anatomy in congenital heart patients. As pediatric patients often present with multiple findings, separate chapters are devoted to the major structures of the cardiovascular system, accompanied with extensive imaging examples of the atria, ventricles, great vessels, coronary arteries, lungs and airways, and the situs. The book concludes with a review of shunts, procedures, and surgeries used in the management of this disorder. Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac CTA is a valuable resource for radiologists, cardiologists, and other clinicians involved in the care of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.

The aims and scope of this atlas include a complete review of the embryology of the normal heart, the normal cardiac anatomy along with a complete discussion of the terms and definitions used to identify and clarify both normal and abnormal anatomy. In addition, techniques of cardiac CT angiography as it pertains to imaging congenital abnormalities are discussed including radiation concepts and radiation saving techniques. The bulk of this book then goes on to completely review the field of adult congenital heart disease using text and more importantly a multitude of pictorial examples (in color and grey scale) to demonstrate the abnormalities. Drawings accompany each picture to better explain the example. Furthermore, difficult and complex anatomical examples are supplemented with digital images and movies to aid in illustrating and understanding the anatomy. Each general set of anomalies as well as each specific abnormality or set of abnormalities includes a concise and simple review of the embryology and epidemiology of the abnormality as well as a concise explanation of the anatomy of the abnormality. In addition, the methods to identify and recognize the abnormality by computed tomography is discussed. Finally, the prognosis and common treatment options for the anomaly are addressed within this comprehensive book.
