Not often. Most are checked against a hash value these days.

For the most part, malware no longer modifies legitimate files, so repair is 
unnecessary. Deleting the entire file is generally the best course of action 
for today's malware.

Not worth the effort for the very few files affected. For documents infected 
with macros, there are easier ways to ignore or remove them and the documents 
are not normally ones that are needed in any case.
