Valve Repair
A valve repair is used to correct a structural defect in the shape and functioning of the valve. Valve repair can usually be done on congenital valve defects (defects you are born with) and has a good success record with treating valve defects. Procedures for valve repair include commissurotomy, valvuloplasty, reshaping, decalcification and patching.
