June 7 marked 19 years since my bovine valve was implanted. I have had no problems and all the cautionary tales (you will have symptoms related to valve degradation as the valve ages) have not materialized. When it does need to be replaced, it will be a TAVR.
Hi Duffy i`m having a valve replacement in a couple of weeks but not sure as to which one to have reading your message encourages me to have the bovine valve can you please tell me why and how it has lasted so long and your age thanks
