Abstract

The desired outcome for patients undergoing mitral valve surgery includes both good function of the mitral valve, and preservation and restoration of sinus rhythm. To achieve such an outcome, we evolved the concept of the left atrium and mitral valve as a "functional anatomic unit." In this report, we describe a technique for reduction in left atrial size, isolation of the pulmonary veins, and amputation of the left atrial appendage in combination with mitral valve repair. We performed such a procedure in 4 patients, with rheumatic mitral valve disease and chronic atrial fibrillation, with restoration of good valve function and sinus rhythm at 16 to 20 months after surgery.
