Thomas Butler, Valve in Valve TAVR Patient
Retired preacher, Thomas Butler's failing heart is now beating strong, thanks to a rarely used procedure to replace a leaking heart valve. Butler, 63, was born with a narrowing of the aorta above the heart, meaning his heart had to work harder to pump oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body.
