Mitral Valve Repair: The Chordae Tendineae
Repair of the mitral valve is the treatment of choice for mitral valve regurgitation when the anatomy is favorable. It is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. This fact

Mitral valve repair for endocarditis [PDF]
Many authors have reported their results of mitral valve (MV) repair1,2 in acute and healed endocarditis. However, the results published from different authors highlight the fact that the reparability rate for this indication remains low. Over the last 3 decades our group has adopted an early and repair-oriented approach to the infective endocarditis ...

Mitral valve repair for degenerative mitral valve regurgitation [PDF]
In industrialized countries, the most common etiology of mitral regurgitation (MR) is degenerative mitral valve (MV) disease. The natural history of severe degenerative MR is poor. However, its appropriate and timely correction is associated with a life expectancy similar to that of the normal population.
