I was wondering if any of you guys have had your Aorta Valve replaced? If so, did you go with the mechanical valve or tissue valve and what are the pros and cons of the one you chose?

I was born with a bicuspid aorta that was found 24 years ago (I am 47 now). Over time it has caused an Aortic Aneurysm and it’s about time to replace. My Surgeon will be out of Northside Gwinnett. I really like him and the research/reviews seem positive. Anyone that has had open heart surgery got any advice? Thank you all.
