Hello allMy father who is 78 has a severe leaky aortic valve had has been informed that he needs to ga e ope heart. I asked about TAVi and was told its not an option for my father.

Have anyone heard of a sutureless aortic valve replacement it is being performed at Harefield and Royal Brompton. Any information and advice would be very much appreciated.

Thank you all in advance.
