Pediatric Thoracic Surgery

From the reviews:“This 400-page monograph is an outgrowth of the Symposium on Pediatric Thoracic Surgery, held in Bologna in November 2010 to assess the ‘state of the art of this discipline.’ … This book will prove most valuable as a general introduction to the field of pediatric thoracic surgery. … The illustrations are excellent and high quality. … This is an attractive primer of surgical problems between the neck and diaphragm.” (Robert M. Arensman, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2013)
