A method for heart valve surgery may include providing a cardiac valve ring and suture loops connected to the cardiac valve ring, accessing a valve annulus of the heart of the patient, stapling at least one of the sutures loop to the valve annulus, and parachuting the cardiac valve ring down the suture to the valve annulus after the stapling. The cardiac valve ring may be an annuloplasty ring, a replacement heart valve, or other medical device.
