Hi everyone
I am looking for some imput in regard to aortic regurgatation. It seems that many aortic vavle replacements are due to stenosis. I am curious to know which valve you chose. Has anyone on this board with AVR had the Ross Procedure done. I was told that the ideal candiate for the Ross is someone with stenosis and not regurg. This is due to the tissue shrinking more easily on regurg. patients.
I have trace regurgatation in my mitral and triscupid vavles and severe in my aortic. I need to replace the aortic. Does anyone have any expirience with multiple valves regurgatating and then after surgery discovering that the leaking in the other valves stopped or got worse after surgery.
Thanks
Rich
