Brief Answer:
No complications practically expected

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.

I have gone carefully through the details as well as the attached documents. Although theoretically a number of potential complications can be listed, from a practical point of view I am not expecting any major post-surgical complications, especially because a number of years has already elapsed and the heart is working smoothly till now. So, I do not think that you have any reason to worry.
