Abstract: An exemplary method of performing an annuloplasty procedure includes introducing a catheter into a left atrium of a heart, deploying a first member from the catheter, anchoring the first member to a posterior side of a mitral valve annulus in the left atrium, deploying a second member from the catheter, anchoring the second member to an anterior side of the mitral valve annulus in the left atrium, deploying a flexible tensile member from the catheter, attaching the tensile member to both the first member and the second member and applying tension to the tensile member to draw the first member and the second member toward one another and bring the posterior side and the anterior side of the mitral valve annulus into closer approximation. Annuloplasty systems and components are also disclosed.
