Treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation accompanied by strong tethering remains a challenge. Undersized ring annuloplasty is frequently associated with residual/recurrent mitral regurgitation caused by mitral-leaflet tethering. Although chordal cutting is a simple procedure for repairing severe tethering of the anterior mitral leaflet, it often affects mitral valvular-ventricular continuity. In this study, using 3-dimensional echocardiography, we investigated the effects of "chordal translocation" on the geometry of the mitral components in a canine model of acute ischemic mitral regurgitation.
