Characterization of biomechanical properties of aged human and ovine mitral valve chordae tendineae

Journal of The Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2016
The mitral valve (MV) is a highly complex cardiac valve consisting of an annulus, anterior and posterior leaflets, chordae tendineae (chords) and two papillary muscles. The chordae tendineae mechanics play a pivotal role in proper MV function: the chords
