Combined degenerative mitral valve and coronary surgery: early outcomes and 10-year survival.
CONCLUSIONS: Combined DMV+CABG surgery is a very effective surgical treatment with high mitral valve repair rate. Early in-hospital outcome and long-term survival are comparable with DMV only surgery. In these combined procedures mitral valve repair is associated with better long-term survival.
