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