Abstract
Elderly patients received this hemodynamically acceptable valve with its simple, supra-annular implantation and satisfactory mid-term morbid-free lifestyle to 10 years maximum follow-up. With only one structural failure, restoration of valve annular extensibility may have a favorable influence on long-term durability.
