In reality they've only been in widespread use for maybe 10 years at the most. We all know smoking causes cancer, yet you can still smoke for years before you get cancer - if you get it at all. We won't know conclusively if they have damaging effects until the generation that uses them the most (15-30) ages another decade or so. Then the statistics might show a whole different story. Thanks for the article. How would we really know for sure that cell phones DON’T cause cancer?? In reality they’ve only been in widespread use for maybe 10 years at the most.

Always interested to learn more about the innovations in heart valves. FYI, I had a double valve replacement in 2005.
