Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiac surgery has undergone incredible developments over the last decades, achieving results, particularly in terms of patient outcomes, unexpected many years ago. Improvements in patient care and technological advancements have allowed for providing more favorable outlooks in the majority of patients with various cardiovascular diseases. We believe that there is a need to periodically assess the status of established, as well as new surgical procedures. Therefore, we felt that this should be the right time to verify up-to-date achievements and where we plan, expect or hope to arrive in the next future. The aim of this publication is to gather data, opinions and results on the most important topics of cardiovascular surgery, providing an update on many aspects of both congenital and acquired heart diseases. The Special Issue is open to those willing to participate and share experiences and results by submitting pertinent contributions which will undergo a peer review process.
We really hope that many of you will join us in what we expect to be an exciting journey at the end of which knowledge in various fields of cardiovascular diseases will be enhanced.
