How Soon After Open Heart Surgery For Aortic Valve Replacement Can I Fly?
May have surgery in Texas so I can be with family but don’t want to stay too long
If your surgery is in Texas I hope it's UTSW Dallas or Methodist in Houston. Two of the finest in Texas heart care
Thank you!
if you've had a minimally invasive cardiac surgery with no complications, you may be able to fly within two to four weeks. For more moderate or intense open heart surgery, such as heart bypass surgery, you may need to wait four to six weeks.
Has Anyone Had Aorta Or Mitral Valve Repair And/or Replacement?
Why Would A Mitral Valve Not Be Replaced When The Aortic Valve Can Be?
