He examines various studies, including an analysis of outcomes after mitral repair vs replacement for severe degenerative mitral regurgitation and the safety and durability of repair-oriented surgery in active infective mitral valve endocarditis. He also provides insights into patient selection for sternotomy and robotic MVr. Additionally, Dr. de Kerchove covers tips and tricks for a range of procedures, including MVr, tricuspid valve repair, robotic surgeries, and approaches for specific conditions, such as large P2 prolapse, P3 prolapse, sternotomy for complex MVr, and Barlow with mitral annular calcification.
