Description
Jae Hwan Choi introduces in 2026 a special journal issue on modern heart surgery and the push for finer, more tailored care. Heart operations now draw on imaging, team input, and rich patient data to sort cases by type and risk. Choi frames the issue around sharpening well-known operations rather than replacing them.
Papers in the issue cover valve repair guided by new sizing methods for hard bicuspid cases. Others map how the tricuspid valve sits near the right coronary artery, a spot where injury can occur during surgery. Echo imaging during operations gets its own review. Later pieces pick out personal risk factors that shape recovery, showing how small gains in planning can make surgery safer.
