Abstract

Rheumatic mitral valve disease is one of the main causes of mitral valve disease in China, as one of the ideal surgical methods for rheumatic mitral valve disease, mitral valve repair is more complicated than replacement of mitral valve. Although the surgical strategy of mitral valve repair is similar to that of degenerative changes, rheumatic lesions and ischemic mitral valve diseases and our team experience, the degree, characteristics and location of mitral valve rheumatic lesions are significantly different from that of degenerative and ischemic lesions, so the choice of repair strategy is also different. Combined with the characteristics of rheumatic mitral valve diseases, the surgical repair strategies of rheumatic mitral valve diseases are reviewed.
