A member asked:
What is the long-term prognosis and life expectancy for someone who has a valve replaced in their heart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is not easy to answer this question because most important facts are missing in the question. Age at time of operation, comorbidities, what valve and vale type, etc. are required for an appropriate response.
