Rolling Stones front man Sir Mick Jagger was spotted for the first time on Thursday since he underwent life-saving heart surgery earlier this month.
The 75-year-old singer had heart valve replacement surgery using a technique pioneered by a French cardiologist, just weeks before he enjoyed a low-key stroll in New York while looking laid-back and relaxed.
The surgery method, transcatherter aortic valve replacement, or TAVR, allows surgeons to swap a patient's cardiac valves without resorting to open heart surgery and cracking open their chests. As a result, recovery times are far quicker.
