Abstract
Patients (3) who developed late severe stenosis in fresh antibiotic sterilized homograft valves were described. Two were in the aortic position and one in the mitral. All 3 patients underwent successful reoperation. This complication was not previously reported in valves prepared by this method.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
