Synopsis

This atlas contains more than 90 high-resolution color photographs, an introductory review, and a comprehensive bibliography on infective endocarditis, which remains a fatal disease in 20% - 30% of cases, is increasingly resistant to the penicillins, and, with the introduction of valve replacement surgery, can now appear as prosthetic valve endocarditis. The book has special value for residents in training, for primary-care physicians whose early diagnosis can be vital, and for cardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons.
