A surgical instrument (10) for treating atrioventricular valve prolapse of the drained human heart comprises a handle (1 1) for being held by a surgeon during a surgical operation a shaft (14) extending distally from the handle the shaft comprising a lumen open to a shaft distal end a cannulated needle (16) arranged in the shaft with a distal end of the needle protruding from the shaft distal end at least in one possible needle position. The needle is equipped for accommodating a first distal implant equipped for being anchored in a papillary muscle and a second proximal implant shaped to hold on to a leaflet of an atrioventricular valve the first and second implants each comprising a chord connector portion for connecting the respective implant to an artificial chord. The apparatus further comprises a trigger arrangement wherein the trigger arrangement is equipped for releasing the first distal implant upon a first release actuation and for releasing the second proximal implant upon a second release actuation.
