The distensible annuloplasty ring which may be enlarged, in situ, by application of dilaroty pressure by way of a balloon or other dilating apparatus. The distensible annuloplasty ring of the invention is usable in pediatric patients whose growth, subsequent to surgical implantation of the ring, will necessitate subsequent enlargement of the ring to accommodate growth of the annulus. The invention includes a transluminal and/or transeptal method for post-implantation enlargement of the annuloplasty ring via catheter.

L'invention a pour objet un anneau dilatable pour annuloplastie. Cet anneau peut être élargi, in situ, par l'application d'une pression de dilatation à l'aide d'un ballonnet ou de tout autre appareil de dilatation. L'anneau dilatable pour annuloplastie selon l'invention peut être utilisé en pédiatrie sur des sujets dont la croissance, après l'implant chirurgical de l'anneau, nécessitera d'élargir ultérieurement l'anneau pour s'adapter à la croissance de l'anneau de la valvule. L'invention concerne également un procédé transluminal et/ou transeptal pour l'agrandissement après implantation de l'anneau pour annuloplastie à l'aide d'un cathéter.
