Methods and systems for endovascular, endocardiac, or endoluminal approaches to a patient's heart to perform surgical procedures that may be performed or used without requiring extracorporeal cardiopulmonary bypass. Furthermore, these procedures can be performed through a relatively small number of small incisions. These procedures may illustratively include heart valve implantation, heart valve repair, resection of a diseased heart valve, replacement of a heart valve, repair of a ventricular aneurysm, repair of an arrhythmia, repair of an aortic dissection, etc. Such minimally invasive procedures are preferably performed transapically (i.e., through the heart muscle at its left or right ventricular apex).

L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes conçus pour des voies d'accès endovasculaires, endocardiaques ou endoluminales au coeur du patient pour réaliser des opérations chirurgicales que l'on peut effectuer ou utiliser sans recourir à une circulation extracorporelle. En outre, ces opérations peuvent être réalisées par le biais d'un nombre relativement faible de petites incisions. Ces opérations peuvent comporter, à titre d'exemple, l'implantation d'une valvule cardiaque, sa réparation, la résection d'une valvule cardiaque malade, le remplacement d'une valvule cardiaque, la réparation d'un anévrisme ventriculaire, la réparation d'une arythmie, la réparation d'une dissection aortique, etc. De telles opérations peu invasives sont de préférence réalisées de manière trans-apicale (c'est-à-dire à travers le muscle cardiaque au niveau de son apex ventriculaire gauche ou droit).
