Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An instrument for repairing an atrioventricular heart valve, the instrument including a tubular element having an outer, distal end; a distal implant part arranged in the tubular element; an artificial chord arranged in the tubular element; a proximal implant part arranged in the tubular element; and, an anchor carrier arranged in the tubular element. The distal implant part and the proximal implant part are arranged in the tubular element beside one another, with the distal implant part being closer to the distal end of the tubular element than the proximal implant part The proximal implant part is assembled with the anchor carrier inside the tubular element so that the tubular element prevents the proximal implant part from escaping from the anchor carrier as long as the anchor carrier is within the tubular element.
