Abstract
The role of mitral valve repair for dilated cardiomyopathy is less well established. Observational studies are promising and suggest that it may be beneficial but patient selection needs to be better defined. Longer follow-up is also needed and randomised studies are needed. Important surgical principles must be followed when performing this surgery to ensure long term durability of the valve repair.
