Congenital Diseases in the Right Heart

Congenital Diseases in the Right Heart edited by Andrew N. Redington, Glen van Arsdell, Robert H. Anderson.

A decade ago the right heart had been ignored in terms of its functional contribution to the circulation in acquired and congenital heart disease. While it remains a popular characterization, our understanding of right heart hemodynamics and pathophysiology, and their contribution to cardiac disease...
