Mitral Valve Repair and Anomalous Origin of Circumflex Artery: To Ring or Not to Ring.

We describe a case of an adult patient with mitral valve regurgitation and the anomalous origin and course of the left circumflex coronary artery. Use of a ringless procedure or a microinvasive approach, such as transapical neochordae implantation, would have possibly avoided a life-threatening post-operative complication.
