Resectional and non-resectional techniques are both well established in mitral valve repair. While we generally prefer resectional methods when feasible, neochordae represent an essential complementary tool to maximize repair rates. Herein, we present our adaptation for the robotic approach and highlight key principles for using neochordae to achieve durable repair.
