	abstract = {Background: As an alternative to quadrangular resection (QR), little is known of the potential of chordal replacement (CR) for treating posterior mitral leaflet (PML) prolapse when comparing these two techniques. This study aimed to assess mid- to long-term outcomes of CR versus QR for isolated degenerative PML (idPML) repair. 
Methods: We reviewed 112 consecutive patients using CR or QR for idPML repair from 4/2010 to 12/2015. Outcomes were compared before and after propensity score matching. 
Results: CR was more used through the minimally invasive approach (CR 59.4% vs. QR 9.4%, P},
