Story on Aaron Boone and his Surgery

[cbdheartman]

Did anyone else see this on ESPN? http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=4385836

Interestingly his doctor just said he was over 4 cm! (Also, I find it interesting that he could have even been cleared to do the work outs for baseball; I assume he would have been weightlifting and such.)

Does anyone know if he had the David Reimplantation?

Great video! My husband was originally told to "watch and wait" with a 5.1 ascending aortic aneurysm. NOT!!! That's when we headed to Cleveland Clinic. I applaud Aaron Boone's cardiologist and others for taking care of this before it was too late.

If I remember correctly the news stated he had a valve sparing aortic root replacement...
