Key result
Mitral valve repair for non-rheumatic mitral regurgitation demonstrated stable long-term results, with an actuarial survival rate of 83.9% and freedom from reoperation of 84.5% at 10 years.

What are the long-term survival and reoperation rates following mitral valve repair for non-rheumatic mitral regurgitation?
Mitral valve repair for non-rheumatic mitral regurgitation demonstrates low operative mortality and stable long-term results, with 84.5% freedom from reoperation at 10 years.

Supports mitral valve repair durability in non-rheumatic MR; leaves open need for randomized confirmation versus replacement.
S Aoyagi (1995) conducted a cohort in non-rheumatic mitral regurgitation (n=54). Mitral valve repair was evaluated on Actuarial survival rate at 10 years. Mitral valve repair for non-rheumatic mitral regurgitation demonstrated stable long-term results, with an actuarial survival rate of 83.9% and freedom from reoperation of 84.5% at 10 years.
