What do you advise if i was diagnosed with a mitral valve stenosis, and i need a valve replacement thru open heart surgery.?

Do it: If you were told you need it, you better do it!

Among patients with unfavorable valve morphology who are referred for MV surgery, valve repair is performed if possible. The repair may include both open commissurotomy and placement of an annuloplasty ring after direct visualization of the valve. MV replacement is generally considered the last alternative for the treatment of MS. Please discuss thoroughly with the cardiac surgeon. Good luck.
