Description
Undersized mitral annuloplasty alone is not always suffi cient to repair functional mitral regurgitation resulting from left ventricular enlargement; the repair requires a three-dimensional approach to the mitral complex. We introduce a surgical procedure that combines papillary muscle approximation to correct lateral shift and papillary muscle relocation using the loop technique to correct the apical shift with accuracy and technical ease.
