Well 15-20 yrs is what some people have been lasting since the whole procedure started about 30 or more years ago. So thats the possible lifespan. Now who knows in about 10 yrs tehy are definatelly going to have come up with something better like wedley said, maybe something artificial that they've implanted in a few people now. They seem to last for a month or 2, but these are people with no hope to live who's life been extended a month or 2 longer.
