Let $v$ be a Henselian Krull valuation of a field $K$ . In this paper, the authors give some necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite simple extension of $(K,\,v)$ to be defectless. Various characterizations of algebraically maximal valued fields are also given which lead to a new proof of a result proved by Yu. L. Ershov.
