Novel apparatus and minimally invasive methods provide for grasping, stabilizing, and fastening of cardiac valve leaflets to treat atrioventricular valve regurgitation, particularly mitral valve regurgitation, in the context of a prolapse and/or flail mitral valve. Independent leaflet grasping elements (34) provide the ability to reposition the leaflets for fastening and enough stability to prevent leaflet movement during fastening.
La présente invention concerne un nouvel appareil et des procédés de traitement à invasivité minimale. L'invention se rapporte à des procédés et à des dispositifs qui permettent de saisir, de stabiliser et de fixer les valves des valvules cardiaques afin de traiter la régurgitation des valvules auriculoventriculaires, en particulier la régurgitation des valvules mitrales, dans un contexte de prolapsus et/ou de défectuosité de la valvule mitrale. Des éléments indépendants de préhension des valves permettent de repositionner les valves afin de les fixer et assurent une stabilité suffisante pour empêcher le mouvement des valves pendant la fixation.
