Kate Losenno always knew she would need aortic valve replacement. She was born with a bileaflet aortic valve, and her heart condition played a major part in her decision to go to medical school and become a cardiologist. Her medical background also gave her more insight into the heart valve replacement options that would be best for her, which led her to choose the Ross Procedure. Since her surgery in June 2014, Kate quickly resumed her hobbies - running, snowboarding, and competing in triathlons.

Thanks so so much for this video, my daughter has CHD aortic valve stenosis + bicuspid , she already had the ballooning done but was left with a severe leak. her cardiologist recommends the Ross now and this video gave me insight on what its about and a patient prospective. thanks for being so positive and informative.

Hope she still is alive, going for ross at age of 41 in november 2023 too. Fingers-crossed it works out to be the right decision .

How long after surgery were you able to resume your fitness. I know that keeping control over blood pressure is key to recovery with the Ross procedure.
