We present the case of a 60-year-old male patient who underwent tetralogy of Fallot repair at 7 years of age and then developed severe degenerative mitral regurgitation during adulthood. Given the increased surgical risk (obesity, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, and reoperation), the patient underwent a successful microinvasive mitral valve repair with neochordae implantation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)

Abstract
We present the case of a 60-year-old male patient who underwent tetralogy of Fallot repair at 7 years of age and then developed severe degenerative mitral regurgitation during adulthood. Given the increased surgical risk (obesity, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, and reoperation), the patient underwent a successful microinvasive mitral valve repair with neochordae implantation.
