Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In medicine, heroic refers to a treatment or course of therapy which possesses a high risk of causing further damage to a patient's health, but is undertaken as a last resort with the understanding that any lesser treatment will surely result in failure.
