Evaluating the feasibility of a novel device for enhanced control of chordal length assessment in mitral valve surgery: A porcine model studyCentral MessagePerspective

Objective: Determining the appropriate expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) chord length remains a critical step in mitral valve repair. Freehand ePTFE suturing and premeasured loops are widely used but present technical challenges. A novel chordal holder device was developed to temporarily secu...
