The Geoform Disease-Specific Annuloplasty System: A Finite Element Study

Background Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is the inability of mitral leaflets to coapt due to a combination of functional and geometrical factors. Valve competence is commonly restored by undersized annuloplasty, reducing the native annulus anteroposterior dimension. In case of severe FMR, th...
