CA 2627517

A method according to one embodiment may include providing a heart valve implant including an anchor capable of engaging coronary tissue, a shaft coupled to said anchor, and a valve body coupled to said shaft. The method may further include at least partially collapsing the heart valve implant and percutaneously inserting the heart valve implant into a heart. The percutaneously inserted implant may be secured within the heart and may then be expanded. Of course, many alternatives, variations, and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.

Dans un mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un procédé consistant: à fournir un implant de valvule cardiaque qui comprend un ancrage capable de coopérer avec un tissu coronaire, un arbre couplé à l'ancrage et un corps de valvule couplé à l'arbre; à affaisser au moins partiellement l'implant de valvule cardiaque et à l'introduire par voie percutanée dans le coeur. L'implant introduit par voie percutanée peut être fixé dans le coeur, puis déployé. Naturellement, de nombreuses alternatives, variations et modifications sont possibles sans pour autant sortir du cadre de ce mode de réalisation.
