Zusammenfassung:Abstract Minimal-invasive mitral valve surgery after breast augmentation is an ongoing interdisciplinary challenge.

We herein report on successful minimal-invasive mitral valve repair after subpectoral breast augmentation with perioperative preservation of the breast implant in situ.
