What are the long-term survival and reintervention rates following surgical repair of congenital mitral valve dysplasia?
Surgical repair of congenital mitral valve dysplasia provides excellent long-term survival (93% at 20 years), though nearly one-fifth of patients eventually require reintervention.
Vida et al. (2016) conducted a cohort in Congenital mitral valve dysplasia (n=100). Surgical repair was evaluated on Actuarial survival at 20 years. Surgical repair of congenital mitral valve dysplasia resulted in 93% actuarial survival and 89% freedom from reintervention at 20 years.
