Oh, I agree with what he is saying here too! I'm just surprised to see him saying it, considering some of the opinions he's expressed in the past.

You have some reading comprehension issues then

A quick google reveals my usual views publicly expressed here:

Especially that you are already going in for an aneurysm repair I'd say that the most common reason for replacing a redo operation with a mechanical valve is either aneurysm or panus formation. I do not know, but I could (probably should) dig around and see what the incidence of panus is on modern mechanical valves.

so especially when discussing valve choice with younger patients I usually always mention Aneurysm risk, Pannus risk and BAV .

I have noted before you seldom read my posts carefully (understandable because few are directed towards you).

Was there something in particular which you felt somehow suddenly was "out of character"?

Ha ha!

You're funny, Pellicle.

We both know what I was talking about.
