In this video, we break down everything you need to know about heart valve diseases, how they affect your body, and the different surgical treatment options available. Learn the difference between narrow (stenosed) valves and leaky (regurgitation) valves, what causes them, and the critical differences between getting a mechanical (metallic) valve versus a bioprosthetic (tissue) valve.
If you or a loved one is preparing for heart surgery, this guide will help you understand the long-term medication requirements and lifestyle changes involved.
