Introduction: Despite increasing use of transcatheter approaches, endoscopic mitral valve surgery (MVS) remains an established option for treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR). Nevertheless, as perioperative risk increases with age, outcome of endoscopic MVS in elderly patients is uncertain.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 756 consecutive patients with MR ≥2, who underwent minimally-invasive MVS at our institution between 2016 and 2022.
