Transcatheter mitral repair: MitraClip technique [PDF]
Surgical mitral valve (MV) repair remains the gold-standard for organic primary MV pathology. Patients with myxomatous degeneration with prolapsing or flail mitral leaflets are usually amenable to sternotomy or minimally invasive mitral repair strategies that yield excellent short and long-term clinical outcomes with durable repair.

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.
