Description
"The classic reference for those who wish to understand fully the pathophysiology of congenital heart disease" (The New England Journal of Medicine, review of previous edition). Thoroughly updated and revised, the 5th Edition provides detailed, state of the art coverage of all of the clinical features of unoperated congenital heart disease--from birth through adulthood. Readers will recognize the signs, symptoms, and clinical manifestations of malpositioned, malformed, or absent cardiovascular chambers, vessels, and values. Superb new illustrations enhance such areas as phonocardiology, electrocardiology, echocardiology, and morphology.

Audience
Cardiologists, Cardiology fellows, Pediatric cardiologists and Pediatric cardiology fellows
