    AbstractValve repair is the best surgical treatment for mitral regurgitation. In the present article we describe the results of mitral valve repair in patients with chronic mitral regurgitation treated at our center during the last eight years. The degree of correction of valve insufficiency, functional benefit, in-hospital morbidity and mortality, postoperative outcome of ventricular function, and middle-term overall and reoperation-free survival are analyzed.
