title: Mitral valve prosthesis for correction of mitral regurgitation in a dog.
abstract: Mitral regurgiation with atrial fibrillation in a 3-year-old St. Bernard dog was corrected by digitalization, placement of a mitral valve prosthesis, and direct current cardioversion. The atrial fibrillation eventually returned and became refractory to cardioversion.
