Cardiac surgery in ThoraxFor some time Thorax has continued to accept papers concerned with cardiac surgery, though not cardiology, the reason being that there were few other outlets for the surgical papers.The number of journals available for papers on cardiac surgery has increased recently, so it was decided at the last editorial board meeting that Thorax should no longer accept papers concerned primarily with cardiac surgery.Thorax is very keen, however, to continue to publish papers on thoracic surgery and papers concerned with the effects of any form of surgery, including cardiac surgery, on the lungs.
