A device, system, and method effects mitral valve (30) annulus geometry of a heart. The device includes a first anchor configured to be positioned within and fixed to the coronary sinus of the heart adjacent the mitral valve annulus within the heart. A cable (34) is fixed to the first anchor (32) and extends proximately therefrom and slidingly through a second anchor (36) which is positioned and fixed in the heart proximal to the first anchor (32). A lock locks the cable to the second anchor (36) when tension is applied to the cable for effecting the mitral valve annulus geometry.

L'invention concerne un dispositif, un système et un procédé destinés à produire une géométrie d'anneau de valvule mitrale (30) pour un coeur. Le dispositif comprend un premier ancrage configuré pour être positionné et fixé au sinus coronaire du coeur, adjacent à l'anneau de la valvule mitrale à l'intérieur du coeur. Un câble (34) est fixé au premier ancrage (32) et s'étend à proximité de celui-ci de manière à glisser à travers un second ancrage (36) qui est positionné et fixé dans le coeur à proximité du premier ancrage (32). Des moyens de verrouillage bloquent le câble sur le second ancrage (36) lorsqu'une tension est appliquée au câble afin de réaliser une géométrie d'anneau de valvule mitrale.
