Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiothoracic procedures are often lifesaving operations. There are effective treatments, including transplantation, for almost all cardiac and thoracic diseases that can be performed with a low risk of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac surgeons are commonly challenged with weighing the potential risk and the potential benefit of a surgical procedure.
It is our privilege to invite experts in the field to share their expertise and submit new ideas and cutting-edge research to this Special Issue.
