Mitral valve insufficiency does not require surgery. Whether surgery is needed for this disease should be analyzed in combination with actual conditions.
If the patient has mild mitral valve insufficiency, no obvious discomfort symptoms, and no accompanying cardiac dysfunction, cardiac enlargement, etc., surgery is usually not required. Conservative treatment can be performed, and the condition can be controlled. If the patient's condition is serious, such as lower limb edema, fatigue, exertional dyspnea, and heart failure, cardiac insufficiency, etc., surgery is usually required. Clinically, common operations include valve replacement surgery, valve repair surgery, etc.
