The present teachings relate to a heart valve prosthesis. The heart valve prosthesis includes a docking station (77) having a wire frame defining a lumen and a valve frame (91) for positioning within its lumen. The docking station includes a diaphragm (78) adapted to have an open position and a close position, which provides a temporary control mechanism for preventing free regurgitation during the time period between the deployment of the docking station and the deployment of the valve frame, and a sealing mechanism for preventing paravalvar leakage.

Cette invention concerne une prothèse de valvules cardiaques. La prothèse de valvules cardiaques comprend une station d'ancrage (77) pourvue d'une armature en fil de fer définissant une lumière et d'une armature de valvule (91) conçue pour être placée à l'intérieur de sa lumière. La station d'ancrage comprend un diaphragme (78) conçu pour présenter une position ouverte et une position fermée, lequel diaphragme offre un mécanisme de régulation temporaire empêchant une régurgitation libre pendant le laps de temps entre le déploiement de la station d'ancrage et le déploiement de l'armature de valvule, et un mécanisme d'étanchéité permettant d'empêcher toute fuite paravalvulaire.
