Publication number: 20150012084Abstract: A device and method for improving flow through a native blood vessel valve, such as the aortic valve, are provided. The present invention allows a miniature valve to be implanted into affected leaflets percutaneously, obviating the need for coronary bypass surgery. The method includes the cutting of small holes, on the order of 4 mm, in the leaflets of a targeted valve, thereby allowing blood to flow through the newly formed holes. The holes are used as attachment sites for the miniature valves of the present invention.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2014Publication date: January 8, 2015Inventors: Robert Foster Wilson, Scott Robert Wilson, James L. Pokorney
