Use of autologous pericardium for mitral leaflet reconstruction in a child with endocarditis
We present a case of successful repair of the mitral valve for active infective endocarditis. Mitral valve repair was performed through debridement of vegetation and abscess, resection and repair of the posterior mitral leaflet and posterior repair with ...
