"The classic reference for those who wish to understand fully the pathophysiology of congenital heart disease" (The New England Journal of Medicine, review of previous edition). Thoroughly updated and revised, the 5th Edition provides detailed, state of the art coverage of all of the clinical features of unoperated congenital heart disease--from birth through adulthood. Readers will recognize the signs, symptoms, and clinical manifestations of malpositioned, malformed, or absent cardiovascular chambers, vessels, and values. Superb new illustrations enhance such areas as phonocardiology, electrocardiology, echocardiology, and morphology.

  • Discusses the history, anatomic features, and physiologic consequences of unoperated congenital heart disease in each chapter.
  • Features the expertise of world-renowned authority on congenital heart disease, Dr. Joseph K. Perloff.


  • Includes a new chapter: Congenital Abnormalities of the Pericardium.
  • Presents expanded material on genetics and developmental biology.
  • Discusses hot topics, including Ebstein's Anomaly of the Tricuspid Valve.
  • Updates all chapters to reflect newly identified malformations.
  • Features over 1,200 illustrations-all of which are new or completely reworked-enabling readers to visualize and recognize malformations.
