It provides detailed, step-by-step descriptions of surgical maneuvers to underline each aspect of the procedures along with full color drawings and operative pictures to enhance understanding. Each chapter fully describes the preoperative setting, the needed materials and the required technical skills that make specific congenital heart defects amenable to minimally invasive surgical treatment.
This is the perfect go-to reference for pediatric and congenital cardiac surgeons, and is also a must-have guide for residents in cardiac surgery who are looking to review the technical aspects and outcomes of utilizing a minimally invasive approach for cardiac surgery.

Vladimiro Vida
Dr. Vida is a surgeon in the Department of Cardiac, Thoracic and Vascular Sciences at the Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Unit at the University of Padua Medical School in Italy. In 2007 while spending time at the Children’s Hospital in Boston and Harvard Medical School, Dr. Vida was introduced to his first case of Scimitar Syndrome. He was given the opportunity to coordinate 4 multicenter studies (2 on national and 2 on international basis). These studies focused on the treatment of patients with this syndrome that were finalized with 3 scientific publications (plus one on going, the international scimitar registry collection data of 501 patients with this syndrome). Dr. Vida has also been invited by numerous societies to present the results of his experience. His major research areas include congenital heart disease in adults, congenital heart surgery, minimally invasive surgery, and Scimitar Syndrome.
