Infos

Congenital cardiovascular malformations are the single most common
form of birth defect. Therefore a better understanding of the
mechanisms involved in both normal cardiac development and the
formation of cardiovascular structural defects is of tremendous
importance.

This book brings together the leading scientists from around the
world who are actively engaged in studies of the etiology,
morphogenesis and physiology of congenital cardiovascular diseases.
A broad variety of approaches, techniques, experimental models and
studies of human genetics combine to make this a truly outstanding
and unique treatise on this pressing topic.

Cardiovascular Development and Congenital Malformations
is divided into distinct categories, each focusing on a particular
aspect of cardiovascular development. Sections are accompanied by
editorial overviews which integrate new findings and place the
information into a broader context.
