trust-building with the family; the ethical issues related to the choice of type and timing among the available surgical options in relationship to the needs of the patient and his\/her family and their cultural and socioeconomic environment; the impact of the differences in culture, education, religion, socio-economic situation; the balance between risks and potential benefits in complex operations without any margin for error; the information to the patient and his\/her family of the potential early and late complications, including death; the involvement of teamwork required for each procedure, with members of a large team not directly under control by the surgeon, with potential mistakes and\/or omissions by any member of the team; the way of sharing bad results; and the support to the family in the case of poor outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWhile a few books deal partly with some of these aspects, this is the first work entirely dedicated to address them all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis important and unique work draws on the author’s many years of experience in many different hospitals in different countries and continents. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKey audiences include the very large number of families of children who underwent or need to undergo surgery for a congenital heart defect; all the caregivers and practitioners involved with the management of these patients; and all researchers and students dealing with the topic of heart malformations.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBiography\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor(s):\u003c\/span\u003e \n\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProfessor Antonio F.
