The success of mitral valve repair for regurgitation or stenosis can
largely be determined at the time of operation. Mitral valve repair is
tested by creating aortic regurgitation, which fills the left ventricle
with systemic aortic perfusion pressure. The competent mitral valve is
salvaged and the incompetent valve is replaced.
