Abstract
We present the case of a 6-year-old patient with double-orifice mitral valve and severe regurgitation, which was successfully repaired. We demonstrate that mitral valve repair may be attempted even in complex anatomy such as the double-orifice mitral valve, where it can offer excellent results.
Keywords:
