Zusammenfassung:Given its complex pathologic anatomy, recurrent left atrioventricular valve regurgitation after partial atrioventricular septal defect repair remains a challenge for surgical correction. Here, we introduce a modified bridging technique by shortening the anteroposterior leaflet distance in selected patients with inadequate coaptation to compensate for the short leaflet height, specifically that of the anterior leaflet.
