My son had his aortic valve replaced with homograft from a donor. It was cryo preserved. His valve was infected and this is the only choice to save his life. My question is does anyone have this and if so what is your experience and longevity or any information any one can share.

Walter Lewandowski I had my aortic valve and aortic arch replaced in 1998 with a homograft. It has worked flawlessly for 19 years. I was 33 when it was performed, I am now 52 but it needs to be replaced now. Many people have said that is a good run. I wish your the best.
