Homograft replacement of the aortic valve
Transplantation, 1962 Abstract Homograft replacement of the aortic valve was performed on 146 patients between 1964 and December, 1966. An additional surgical procedure was necessary in 50 patients: mitral valvotomy in 25, repair or replacement of the mitral and tricuspid valves in 22, and closure of a ventricular septal defect in 3.
