There have been no reports concerning wound healing at the site of the suture line in myxomatous leaflets. We microscopically studied the sutured wounds in two myxomatous posterior mitral leaflets which underwent quadrangular resection of the frail middle segment followed by primary suture. The sutured wounds had a thick scar which was abundant in collagen fibers about 1 month after the repair surgery. This suggests that severe myxomatous degeneration itself would not be a cause of wound dehiscence, and that a sutured wound could be a cause of rigidity and deformity of leaflets.
