This is a short clip of a mitral valve replacement I recently performed on a 34 year old lady from East Timor who had severe regurgitation due to rheumatic valve disease. The cardiac surgery team at St John of God Geelong (SJOGG) Hospital had the privilege of assisting the East Timor Hearts Fund (ETHF) in providing treatment to the people of East Timor, where rheumatic heart disease is endemic. The ETHF is a remarkable volunteer organisation and charity which does great work in our neighbouring young nation of East Timor to prevent and treat heart disease.
