SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Part of the Monographs in "Cardiac Surgery Series"--Introducing 'basic science into the cardiac operating room'. This title includes fast systematic review of small areas of cardiac surgery including up-to-date information. This will allow more rapid publication than the alternative cardiac surgery 'tomes'. This entry into the series will provide readers with a complete review of the current understanding in mitral valve surgery and include extensive details on the diagnosis and surgical management of patients with mitral valve disease.
