Abstract
Residual left atrioventricular valve regurgitation after conventional repair technique for partial atrioventricular septal defect most commonly occurs in the central position. We describe here the technique for bridging annuloplasty on the opposing anterior and posterior annuli of the atrioventricular valve in selected patients with short leaflets.
