Division of Cardiac Surgery

The Division of Cardiac Surgery is comprised of faculty based at five university affiliated teaching hospitals (Toronto General Hospital, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, St. Michael's Hospital, The Hospital for Sick Children, and Trillium Health Partners) and performs approximately 4050 cardiac operations annually comprising adult acquired, adult congenital, and pediatric cases.

In addition, a wide range of basic and clinical research groups are actively studying such areas as causes of pulmonary hypertension, fetal surgery, myocardial protection, cardiac transplantation and surgery for acquired aortic valve disease.
