Arterial Grafting for Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery [electronic resource] /
He, Guo-Wei.editor.
The second edition of this book provides updated knowledge about the biological characteristics and clinical use of arterial grafts for coronary artery bypass surgery. The reader will find first-hand information on arterial grafts as well as vein grafts with regard to biological characteristics, clinical use including off-pump coronary bypass grafting surgery, results, and future developments. Written by world-renowned cardiac surgeons and cardiovascular research scientists working in this area, the book will be invaluable both as a practical guide and as a stimulus for further improvement of arterial grafting techniques and technology.
