Abstract
Founded in 1921 as a multidisciplinary physician-based practice with an emphasis on teamwork, Cleveland Clinic developed a focus on cardiothoracic diseases early in its history. From the development of coronary angiography and coronary artery bypass grafting to more recent advances in the management of heart valve disease, Cleveland Clinic surgeons have sought to contribute to cardiac surgery through a combination of innovation and careful analysis of patient outcomes.
