摘要：

A 60-year-old man whose operatively excised stenotic and regurgitant aortic valve weighed nearly 15 g, approximately 30 times the normal weight in an adult, is described. To the investigators' knowledge, this is the heaviest aortic valve ever encountered in a human being. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
