2017, Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The surgical reduction in anteroposterior diameter and orifice area of the MV is an overcorrection and overcompensation for a disease of the ventricle. This undersizing of the mitral ring was first proposed by Bolling in 1995 and has become a standard technical approach for IMR repair.78 When undersizing a mitral ring, it is recommended that one use a very large number of annular sutures, as compared with degenerative MR repairs, to distribute the workload of annular reductive force.
