    Background: The aim of our study was to compare the outcome of patients who underwent mitral valve anterior leaflet repair with and without chordal replacement for degenerative mitral valve insufficiency. Methods: This study was conducted at our center between May 2006 and May 2013. The study included 125 patients with degenerative mitral valve insufficiency (64 males, 61 females; mean age 47 years, age range 16-78 years) who underwent mitral valve repair with anterior leaflet procedures. The patients were divided into 2 groups. Group A consisted of 56 patients with chordal replacement, and group B consisted of 69 patients with other repair techniques performed. Results: No significant difference was determined between the 2 groups in mortality, recurrence, and reoperation rates. The mortality rate was 3.6% in group A and 1.4% in group B. During the follow-up period, 3 patients were reoperated on (mitral valve replacement) because of severe mitral valve insufficiency. Two of these patients were from group A (3.6%), and the other was from group B (1.4%). One patient in group A underwent intraoperative mitral valve replacement after unsuccessful chordal replacement. Fifty patients (89.3%) in group A and 65 patients (94.2%) in group B exhibited no or mild recurrence of mitral valve insufficiency. Conclusion: Mitral valve repair in patients with degenerative mitral valve insufficiency resulting from anterior leaflet pathology is a safe procedure because of its durability and good long-term results. Despite the difficulty of the chordal replacement procedure, it may be used as an alternative technique for anterior mitral valve leaflet repair.
