Abstract
Different surgical techniques are available for mitral valve (MV) repair in patients with degenerative severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Leaflet resection (LR) and neochordoplasty (NP), both including ring annuloplasty (RA), are the most frequently performed techniques for posterior mitral leaflet prolapse/flail repair. Despite NP technique is supposed to preserve LV physiology more than LR, it is unclear which technique provides the best haemodynamic pattern. In the present study, the results of the two different surgical techniques in terms of left ventricular (LV) dimension and function are investigated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
