However, reoperation data, which may help guide clinical decision making in young patients, remains poorly defined in the literature. Methods and Results—We examined the need for reoperation in 3975 patients who underwent first-time bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement (AVR) (n...

The prognosis for a patient with valvular heart disease treated medically is dependent on the stage of the disease at which he is first seen. Therefore, assessment for surgery requires evaluation of the pathophysiologic con...
