The types of surgical correction of the mitral valve pathology, hospital and long-term results were studied. The mitral valve repair being compared to the mitral valve replacement is procedure of choice as it provides stable results. In the study we demonstrate that the long-term results of reconstructive procedures on the mitral valve have advantages over mitral valve replacement in terms of survival, freedom from reoperation and tromboembolc complications.
