Future episodes will feature a newlywed who needs to replace his aortic valve in order to make it to his one-year anniversary; and Dr. Oz faces an ethical dilemma when a patient in heart failure asks to remove a heart pump that's keeping him alive; and a challenging case with a patient who needs not one, but two heart valves replaced.
