Cardiothoracic surgery punishes the gap between knowing an operation and being able to perform it. A bronchial stump does not fail because of the stapler — it fails because peribronchial tissue was stripped forty minutes earlier. A mitral repair does not develop systolic anterior motion on the post-bypass study — it develops it when a posterior leaflet height was estimated rather than measured. This reference was built around that reality, tracing every complication back to the decision that actually caused it, and giving you the specific number, threshold, or manoeuvre that prevents it while everything still looks fine.
Written in the voice of an experienced surgeon at the bedside rather than a textbook compiler, it moves from surgical anatomy and bypass conduct through coronary, valve, root, arch, and thoracic technique to the intensive care that determines whether the operation holds. Full-color realistic clinical imagery, labeled to a single teaching point, shows what you will actually see in the field.
What this reference delivers at the table:
- Exact figures where vagueness costs patients — suture calibres, cannula sizes, perfusion pressures, effective height and coaptation targets, arrest intervals, and dosing thresholds you can act on immediately
- Decision algorithms for cannulation strategy, cerebral protection, malperfusion, weaning, and escalation, rendered as clear visual pathways
- Full-color photorealistic anatomy, imaging, and intraoperative figures with focused labeling, plus color-coded flowcharts where clarity demands it
- Complication chapters that name the specific error, the moment it occurs, and the step that prevents it
- Minimally invasive, robotic, hybrid, and transcatheter-adjacent techniques set beside conventional approaches with honest trade-offs
- Postoperative intensive care worked in the same detail as the operation — recognition patterns, escalation ladders, and the findings that precede collapse
- A practitioner's toolkit of quick-reference cards, documentation templates, and workflow checklists ready for the workstation
Preparation is what your patients are actually consenting to. Put this reference on your desk, read the relevant chapter the night before, and return to it after the cases that went badly — that second reading is always the more useful one.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.

There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
