Abstract

This paper describes a 47-years old patient with the history of lupus valvulitis for six and a half years, who had implantation of a Starr-Edwards prosthesis for a mitral insufficiency four years ago. This case represents the longest survival reported so far after mitral valve replacement for lupus valvulitis.
