Cardiac surgery complications, surgery on the great veins and pulmonary arteries, and cardiac tumors

This article focuses on some recent advances in combating complications of open heart surgery, particularly those relating to wound infections, neurologic events, bleeding, and low cardiac output postoperatively. The recognition of the ability of aprotinin to limit postoperative bleeding is one of the most exciting developments in recent years. In addition, there is a discussion of other topics including surgery on the great veins (specifically the superior vena cava), pulmonary artery surgery, and surgery for cardiac tumors. These entities are unusual problems in cardiac surgery, and the articles presented provide significant findings of the authors in these particular fields.
