Homograft Video: Aortic Valve Replacement Dr. Kevin Accola

Posted By Adam Pick On August 5, 2008 @ 5:25 am In Heart Surgery Video | 4 Comments

One of the most, highly regarded cardiothoracic surgeons I know is Dr. Kevin Accola from Florida [1].

Lucky for us, I just found a video that features Dr. Accola as he works on a patient requiring aortic valve replacement due to a congenital, bicuspid aortic valve [2]. As you can see in this story Dr. Accola uses a homograft valve to replacement the patient’s defective valve.

Keep on tickin!
