in the field.
The regular

, polls, discussions, polemics, comments, as well as information from the Czech Society of Cardiology, Czech Society for Cardiovascular
Surgery and the European Society of Cardiology. It also includes a variety of topical international news items.
The journal publishes
in two versions with the same content: one of which being the on-line version of
Cor et Vasa which is published completely in
English, whilst the other printed version is largely in Czech (the manuscripts from the English version are translated into Czech by
local experts).
