A mitral annuloplasty and left ventricle restriction device (40, 100) is designed to be transvenously advanced and deployed within the coronary sinus (22) and in some embodiments other coronary veins (28, 30). The device places tension on adjacent structures, reducing the diameter and/or limiting expansion of the mitral annulus and/or limiting diastolic expansion of the left ventricle. These effects may be beneficial for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.

Selon l'invention, un dispositif d'annuloplastie mitrale et d'étranglement du ventricule gauche (40, 100) est conçu pour être inséré par transveineuse et déployé à l'intérieur du sinus coronaire (22) ou, dans d'autres formes de réalisation, dans des veines coronaires (28, 30). Le dispositif exerce une tension sur des structures adjacentes, et réduit le diamètre et/ou limite l'expansion de l'anneau mitral, et/ou limite l'expansion diastolique du ventricule gauche. Ces effets peuvent être bénéfiques pour des patients souffrant d'une myocardiopathie dilatée.
