OBJECTIVE Left atrio-ventricular valve (LAVV) regurgitation after repair of an atrio-ventricular septal defect (AVSD) may necessitate further surgery. However, redo-LAVV repair remains challenging. We sought to determine if more LAVV valves are preserved in the current era, and analyze early and longer-term results. PATIENTS All consecutive patients with repaired AVSD who underwent redo-LAVV surgery from January 2004 to April 2017 were included. Patients with single ventricles, atrial isomerism, and complex associated anomalies were excluded. METHODS This was a single-center study using retrospective chart review and an institutional database for follow-up information. Data analyzed included number and year of primary AVSD and redo-LAVV operation, presence of trisomy 21, morphology of AVSD, mortality, and reoperation. Univariate analysis included repair and replacement rates and early and long-term survival. RESULTS During the study period 36 redo-LAVV operations were performed, with repair in 28 and replacement in eight. The number of redo-operations increased from 13 in the first part to 23 in the second part of the study. The rate of LAVV preservation significantly increased over time (54% vs 91%, P
