Abstract: This prosthesis (1), comprises an expandable tubular frame (2) with a mesh structure and a prosthetic valve (3) mounted on this frame; the ventricular portion (2v) of the frame (2) has a large indentation (6) on one side, extending lengthwise from the end of this ventricular portion (2v) that is opposite said annular portion (2i) to the part of this ventricular portion (2v) close to the annular portion (2i), this indentation (6) extending over a sector of the circumference of the prosthesis (1) of about 90 to 140°; said atrial portion (2a) flares toward the outside of the prosthesis, from said annular portion (2i) toward the end of this atrial portion opposite this annular portion, and comprises anchoring spikes (5a) on the side of said annular portion (2i); and said ventricular portion (2v) has a substantially spherical or ovoid shape and comprises anchoring spikes (5v) on the side of said annular portion (2i).
Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a mitral or tricuspid heart valve prosthesis that includes. An expansible tubular frame and a prosthetic valve mounted on the frame. The frame includes an atrial portion, a ventricular portion, and an annular portion located between said atrial and ventricular portions, wherein: the atrial portion is made up of three or four metal-wire extensions, regularly distributed on the circumference of said atrial portion and projecting from said annular portion, each extension being made up of a single upside-down U-shaped or V-shaped wire and the various extensions being substantially part of an imaginary truncated sphere placed above said annular portion. The annular portion is made up of diamond meshes which comprise anchoring points; and said ventricular portion is made up of three or four extensions equivalent to the extensions, substantially contained inside an imaginary ovoid shape placed under said annular portion.
