MV repair with papillary muscle repositioning results in a papillary muscle to mitral annulus distance reduction and significantly improved MV tenting parameters. Improved papillary muscle geometry after papillary muscle repositioning is associated with a global LV reverse remodelling and may, thereby, improve the prognosis of FMR patients.
