The Björk-Shiley Delrin (BSD) tilting disc heart valve was first clinically used in 1969. A triple BSD valve replacement has not been quite common, because of high postoperative risk and complications, but there have been several cases with different postoperative course. The first implantation of artificial valve in Yugoslavia was done by Prof. Isidor Papo, in 1965.
