	abstract = {My collaboration with Professor Carpentier began in the early 1990s and was to continue for more than 25 years. Ours was a unique relationship based on mutual respect and unwavering trust: he liked to introduce me as “the justice of the peace”, a symbol of the power of partnership. The lessons I learned during my 25 years with Professor Carpentier could be summarized in four key messages: understanding the surgeon’s needs based upon the pathophysiological triad and functional approach, establishing a dedicated two-dimensional (2D)/three-dimensional (3D) intra-operative echo protocol in a common language, participating in evolution and evaluation of mitral valve reconstruction and transmitting knowledge to younger generations by education: “give to be given”. I owe my entire professional career to him. Beyond that, we have forged an unbreakable bond, a relationship that is not only scientific but also deeply human. This filial bond will last forever.},
