Thought you might find this article as facinating as I did. It is scary what they are doing now. Just amazing.

I don't find it scary; I find it inspiring!

They replace pulmonary valves over here by cathetar now at Great Ormond Street, have been for a little while now I think - excellent isnt it. Just a shame it cant be done on other valves at the moment.
