An implantable device system for controlling the dimensions of internal anatomic passages corrects physiologic dysfunctions resulting from a structural lumen which is either too large or too small. Implantable devices are disclosed which employ various mechanisms for adjusting and maintaining the size of an orifice to which they are attached. Systems permit the implants to be implanted using minimally invasive procedures and permit final adjustments to the dimensions of the implants after the resumption of normal flow of anatomic fluids in situ.
L'invention porte: sur un système de dispositifs implantables permettant de contrôler les dimensions de passages anatomiques internes et de corriger les dysfonctionnements physiologiques résultant de lumières trop larges ou trop étroites; et sur des dispositifs implantables utilisant divers mécanismes pour modifier et maintenir la taille d'un orifice auquel ils sont fixés. De tels systèmes permettent de poser un implant avec des procédures les moins invasives possible, tout en permettant un ajustement final aux dimensions de l'implant après la reprise du flux normal des fluides anatomiques in situ.
