Mechanical mitral valves without long-term anticoagulation up tothirteen years Viking O.

Fig. 1 The microporous surfaced 25 mm mitral Björk-Shiley Monostrut heart valve after 2 ½ years without anticoagulation in a goat. The valve is viewed from the left ventricle with the disc in the open position. The carbon-coated Teflon suture ring is covered with thin, smooth, glistening yellow endothelium extending over the groove and adjacent part of the valve flange.
