Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Cardiac Valve Disease
  • Prosthetic Valve Complications

Background:

  • Rheumatic heart disease can affect multiple valves, leading to severe stenosis and insufficiency.
  • Triple-valve replacement is a complex procedure for advanced multi-valve disease.
  • Prosthetic valve stenosis, particularly due to pannus, is a recognized long-term complication.
