I have been dianognosed with endocarditis on the mitral valve at Christmas. Since then I have been in hospital for seven weeks and got an ICD. My mitral valve has been severely damaged by the endocarditis (grade 4) and I am scheduled to be operated. The waiting list is 4-5 months, so I am looking for any other possibilities than the Academic Hospital in Leiden, Netherlands, where I live. Does any of you have any useful suggestions? The sugeon should be knowledgable in valve, but also know about myectomies, because I have a large gradient at the aorta valve as well!
Thank you for your input!
