A valvular prosthesis (10) including a valve portion (12) and a stent portion (14). The valve portion (12) includes inflow (16) and outflow (18) ends spaced apart from each other by a length of a generally cylindrical sidewall portion (20). The valve portion (12) also includes one or more leaflets (22), (24) and (26). The stent portion (14) has an inflow end (30) and outflow end (32) that may include outwardly turned portions to engage the surrounding tissue that mitigates movement thereof.

L'invention concerne une prothèse (10, 50, 100, 200, 300, 350, 470, 540, 570, 702, 748, 800, 850, 918, 950) de valve cardiaque et un procédé d'implantation de ladite prothèse. Une valve (12, 52, 98, 472, 542, 590, 754, 854, 920) est montée dans un appareil (14, 54, 80, 400,420, 500, 752, 860, 572, 574, 752, 860, 900) de support, pouvant être déformée pour passer d'un premier état à un second état. Dans le second état, la prothèse présente une dimension transversale inférieure à une dimension transversale de la valve dans le premier état. La prothèse peut être implantée dans le coeur d'un patient, par exemple au cours d'une procédure à vision directe à l'aide d'un appareil d'implantation tubulaire maintenant la prothèse dans le second état jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit déchargée de l'appareil tubulaire.
