I had open heart surgery for repair of an aortic aneurysm. I also inherited the same wanky bicuspid aortic valve that has contributed to the death of at least one person (and usually more) in each of the last four generations of my family.
For some reason, the heart surgeon decided not to replace it when he had me opened up. Maybe I'll have the joy of undergoing another $160k operation to fix the valve using this technique.
By the way, in case you're wondering, open heart surgery kind of sucks. I wouldn't recommend it unless you absolutely need it.
