Heart Valve Replacement
Hello Doctor.
My friend's mother had two heart valve replacement surgeries. Post surgery, they again found a leak in valve recently.
Doctors told that they cannot perform a surgery now as her body cannot resist. Can you please suggest if we have any other method in this situation.
I would be very very very thankful for any of your help.
