Novel apparatus and minimally invasive methods to treat The present invention provides methods and devices for grasping, stabilizing and fastening of cardiac valve leaflets to treat atrioventricular valve regurgitation, particularly mitral valve regurgitation, in the context of prolapse and/or flail mitral valve. Independent leaflet grasping elements provide the ability to reposition the leaflets for fastening and enough stability to prevent leaflet movement during fastening.
