Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/419,706 filed Apr. 18, 2003, the full disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to medical devices and methods. More particularly, the present invention provides minimally invasive methods and devices for percutaneous transcatheter implantation of expansible prosthetic heart valves within or adjacent a valved anatomic site within the heart.
- Natural heart valves, such as aortic valves, mitral valves, pulmonary valves, and tricuspid valves, often become damaged by disease in such a manner that they fail to maintain bodily fluid flow in a single direction. A malfunctioning heart valve may be stenotic (i.e., heart leaflets are closed down) or regurgitant (i.e., heart leaflets are wide open). Maintenance of blood flow in a single direction through the heart valve is important for proper flow, pressure, and perfusion of blood through the body. Hence, a heart valve that does not function properly may noticeably impair the function of the heart.
- The etiologies commonly associated with a malfunctioning heart valve may be congenital, acquired, infectious, or degenerative. The most commonly affected heart valves are the aortic and mitral valves. It is believed that rheumatic heart disease, trauma, and bacterial endocarditis may be largely responsible for aortic stenosis and regurgitation. Common causes of mitral valve malfunctioning may be rheumatic diseases, enlargement of a left ventricle, or endocarditis. Pulmonary valve stenosis may be a congenital heart defect. Common causes of tricuspid valve malfunctioning may be rheumatic heart disease or heart defect.
- Cardiac valve prostheses are well known in the treatment of heart disease to replace malfunctioning heart valves. Heart valve replacement generally has been accomplished by major open heart surgery. This is a serious operation that requires general anesthesia, full cardiopulmonary bypass with complete cessation of cardiopulmonary activity, an extended hospitalization stay, and several more weeks to months of recuperation time. For some patients, open heart surgery is not an option because of the critical condition of the patient, advanced age, co-existing infection, or other physical limitations.
- An alternative treatment regiment to open heart surgery is minimally invasive intravascular delivery and implantation of prosthetic heart valves, typically by way of catheterization. In minimally invasive procedures, a catheter is used to insert a mechanical or bioprosthetic valve in a lumen of a central blood vessel via percutaneous entry through a distal blood vessel. Typically, such percutaneous prosthetic valve devices comprise an expandable stent segment, a stent anchoring segment, and a flow-regulation segment, such as a ball valve or a leaflet. While such minimally invasive prosthetic devices and methods are promising from safety, patient recovery, and cost standpoints, some drawbacks still need to be addressed. For example, some prosthetic heart valve structures which attempt to mimic locally stiffened tissue of natural valves often fatigue or may even fail with continued or prolonged opening and closing of the valve. This may especially be a problem for prosthetic aortic valve replacements due to the associated high blood pressures and flow rates at this anatomic site.
- For these reasons, it would be desirable to provide improved devices and methods for replacing or repairing a malfunctioning heart valve. In particular, it would be desirable to provide improved minimally invasive methods and devices for percutaneous transcatheter implantation of expansible prosthetic heart valves within or adjacent a valved anatomic site within the heart. In particular, it would be desirable to provide improved prosthetic heart valve devices that reduce or inhibit fatigue and/or failure of the valve, particularly the flow-regulation mechanism, during continued or prolonged opening and closing of the valve. It would be further desirable to provide improved prosthetic heart valve devices that effectively maintain bodily fluid flow in a single direction and open and close with pressure and/or flow change of blood through the body. At least some of these objectives will be met by the devices and methods of the present invention described hereinafter.
- 2. Description of the Background Art
- Percutaneous aortic valve replacements are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,482,228 and 5,855,601 and U.S. Publication Nos. 2002/0058995 and 2001/0007956. Other artificial heart valves for implantation within a blood vessel are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,454,799; 6,296,662; 5,957,949; 5,413,599; 4,994,077; 4,352,211; and 3,671,979.Percutaneous venous valve replacements are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,299,637 and U.S. Publication Nos. 2002/0138135 and 2001/0021872.
- The full disclosures of each of the above references are incorporated herein by reference.
- The present invention provides improved devices and methods for replacing or repairing a malfunctioning heart valve. In particular, improved minimally invasive methods and devices are provided for percutaneous transcatheter implantation of expansible prosthetic heart valves within or adjacent a valved anatomic site within the heart. In particular, the improved prosthetic heart valve devices of the present invention reduce or inhibit fatigue and/or failure of the valve, particularly the flow-regulation mechanism, during continued or prolonged opening and closing of the valve. Such improved prosthetic heart valve devices also efficiently maintain bodily fluid flow in a single direction and open and close with pressure and/or flow change of blood through the body.
- In a first aspect of the present invention, an expansible prosthetic heart valve comprises an implantable structure, a flexible membrane, and a membrane support. The implantable structure is expansible from a first reduced diameter to a second enlarged diameter and has a flow path therethrough. The flexible membrane is positionable in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction and substantially resisting flow in a second direction. The membrane support is positionable in the flow path and affixed to the implantable structure.
- The membrane support is disposed in the flow path when the implantable structure has the second enlarged diameter. The membrane support comprises at least one radial rib, typically a plurality of radial ribs, extending across the blood flow path of a valve annulas. Preferably, the membrane support comprises a circular or cap-like wire frame extending across an axis of the implantable structure. The membrane support may comprise a separate structure or in the alternative may be integrally formed with the implantable structure so as to define an integral framework. Advantageously, the membrane support reduces and/or inhibits movement of the flexible membrane in the second direction when the prosthetic heart valve is closed. Further, the membrane support need not flex or contract significantly during opening and closing of the flow path with the flexible membrane. As such, fatigue and/or failure of the prosthetic valve, particularly the membrane support and flexible membrane, may be significantly reduced and/or inhibited during continued or prolonged opening and closing of the valve.
- The flexible membrane is disposed in the flow path when the implantable structure has the second enlarged diameter. The flexible membrane functions as a one-way valve member to efficiently maintain bodily fluid flow in a single direction. The flexible membrane opens and closes with pressure and/or flow change of blood through the body so as to allow the blood to flow in the first direction (i.e., prosthetic heart valve is open) and to inhibit the flow of blood in the second or opposite direction (i.e., prosthetic heart valve is closed). The flexible membrane is preferably affixed to a central portion of the membrane support. However, it will be appreciated that the flexible membrane may be optionally attached anywhere along the circular wire frame of the membrane support or be attached to the implantable structure. In operation, the flexible membrane opens and closes somewhat like an umbrella. Typically, the flexible membrane has a substantially circular shape when the prosthetic heart valve is closed and a substantially conical shape when the prosthetic heart valve is open. In some instances, the flexible membrane may comprise at least one leaflet, typically two to three leaflets, or the flexible membrane may comprise a displaceable, expandable valve member. The flexible membrane may be formed form a variety of materials but will typically comprise an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene or biological materials.
- The implantable structure generally comprises a stent-like tubular framework which primarily anchors the prosthetic heart valve within or adjacent the defective valve annulus of the heart. The implantable structure in some instances may also maintain luminal patency, particularly when the defective valve is stenotic. The implantable structure and the membrane support will typically comprise resiliently expanding shape memory alloy or like materials, but may be plastically expandable in some embodiments. In this embodiment, the implantable structure and the membrane support are fixed relative to one another and do not substantially flex every time the flow path is opened or closed by the flexible membrane. The tubular framework preferably comprises a plurality of struts, wherein at least three struts are longer than the remaining struts. The three elongate struts are of benefit in providing optimal orientation of the prosthetic heart valve during implantation. The tubular framework may further comprise a plurality of radial protrusions, such as hooks or anchoring barbs, extending beyond the framework when the framework is implanted within or adjacent an intraluminal site. Such radial protrusions that extend circumferentially and longitudinally from an outer surface of the tubular framework further aid in anchoring the prosthetic heart valve.
- In some instances, the implantable structure or membrane support may be covered with a layer of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene or biological materials. Further, at least a portion of the implantable structure, flexible membrane, or membrane support may be coated with an anit-thrombogenic substance, such as anti-coagulants, to minimize or prevent any clot formations. All three components of the prosthetic heart valve are expandable from a first reduced profile configuration for endoluminal valve insertion and advancement thorough the vasculature to a second enlarged profile configuration for operation as a valve.
- In a second aspect of the present invention, an expansible prosthetic heart valve comprises an implantable structure, a displaceable, expandable valve member, and a valve member support. The implantable structure is expansible from a first reduced diameter to a second enlarged diameter and has a flow path therethrough. The displaceable, expandable valve member is positionable in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction and substantially resisting flow in a second direction. The valve member support is positionable in the flow path at least when the prosthetic heart valve is closed. The valve member and valve member support are disposed in the flow path when the implantable structure has the second enlarged diameter.
- The displaceable or moveable valve member in this embodiment is preferably affixed to the valve member support. Beneficially, the valve member support acts to support the valve member while the valve member inhibits the flow of blood in the second direction when the prosthetic heart valve is closed. The displaceable valve member and valve member support may together comprise an expandable ball valve. The ball valve may be coupled to the implantable structure at a hinge point, wherein the ball valve is centrally supported. Alternatively, the ball valve may be axially slidable or moveable relative to the implantable structure. Irrespective, the valve member and valve member support are displaced during opening and closing of the flow path.
- In a third aspect of the present invention, an expansible prosthetic heart valve comprises a tubular framework, a flexible membrane, and a membrane support. The tubular framework is expansible from a first reduced diameter to a second enlarged diameter and has a flow path along a tubular axis. The framework in this embodiment preferably comprises a plurality of struts, wherein at least three of the struts are longer than the remaining struts. The flexible membrane is positionable in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction and substantially resisting flow in a second direction. The membrane support is affixed to the tubular framework and disposed in the flow path when the framework has the second enlarged diameter. In particular, the membrane support inhibits movement of the flexible membrane in the second direction when the prosthetic heart valve is closed and does not substantially flex or contract during opening and closing of the flow path with the flexible membrane.
- In a fourth aspect of the present invention, methods for implanting an expansible heart valve are provided. One method comprises providing a prosthetic heart valve having an expansible structure, a flexible membrane, and a membrane support. The expansible structure is implanted within or adjacent an intraluminal site. The structure is expanded from a first reduced diameter to a second enlarged diameter, wherein a flow path extends therethrough. The flexible membrane is positioned in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction and substantially resisting flow in a second direction. The membrane support is disposed in the flow path when the framework has the second enlarged diameter. In particular, the membrane support does not flex during opening and closing of the flow path by the flexible membrane.
- The intraluminal site may comprise an aortic valve to facilitate blood flow from a left ventricle to an aorta, a mitral valve to facilitated blood flow from a left atrium to the left ventricle, a pulmonary valve to facilitate blood flow from a right ventricle to pulmonary arteries, or a tricuspid valve to facilitate blood flow from a right atrium to the right ventricle. As discussed above, the membrane support is preferably affixed to the structure, wherein the membrane support and structure are fixed during opening and closing of the flow path by the flexible membrane. Alternatively, the flexible membrane may comprise an expandable valve member affixed to the membrane support. In such an embodiment, the expandable valve member and membrane support are displaced at a hinge or in an axial direction relative to the structure.
- A further understanding of the nature and advantages of the present invention will become apparent by reference to the remaining portions of the specification and drawings.

FIGS. 1A-1D illustrate an exemplary embodiment of an expansible prosthetic heart valve constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention. The expansibleprosthetic heart valve 10 comprises animplantable structure 12, aflexible membrane 14, and amembrane support 16. Theimplantable structure 12 is expansible from a first reduced diameter, as shown inFIG. 1A , to a second enlarged diameter, as shown inFIGS. 1B-1D , and has a flow path along a structure axis. Theflexible membrane 14 is positionable in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction, as illustrated byarrow 18 inFIG. 1B , and substantially resisting flow in a second direction, as illustrated byarrow 20 inFIG. 1C . Themembrane support 16 is positionable in the flow path and affixed to theimplantable structure 12, as shown inFIGS. 1B and 1D . It will be appreciated that the following depictions are for illustration purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the actual shape, size, or dimensions of the expansibleprosthetic heart valve 10. This applies to all depictions hereinafter. - The
implantable structure 12 generally comprises a tubular framework, such as a stent, which primarily anchors theprosthetic heart valve 10 within or adjacent the defective valve annulus of the heart. Theimplantable structure 12 provides stability and prevents theprosthetic heart valve 10 from migrating or embolizing after it has been implanted. Thetubular framework 12 may further comprise a plurality ofradial protrusions 22, such as hooks or anchoring barbs, extending beyond theframework 12 when the framework is implanted within or adjacent an intraluminal site. Suchradial protrusions 12 that extend circumferentially and/or longitudinally from an outer surface of thetubular framework 12 further aid in anchoring theprosthetic heart valve 10 within or adjacent the defective valve annulus of the heart. - The
implantable structure 12 may be self expanding and is suitable for placement within or adjacent a valved intraluminal site. The valved intraluminal site preferably comprises an aortic valve, mitral valve, pulmonary valve, or tricuspid valve annulus of the heart. It will be appreciated however that the present invention may also find use in valved intraluminal sites other than in the heart. For example, the present invention may be applied to venous valves as well.Self expanding structures 12 are provided by utilizing resilient metals, such as a superelastic shape memory alloy, e.g., NITINOL™ alloys, tempered stainless steel, spring stainless steels, or the like, and forming the tubular framework so that it possesses its desired, radially expanded diameter when it is unconstrained, i.e., released from radially constraining forces of a sheath. In order to remain anchored in the intraluminal site, theimplantable structure 12 will remain partially constrained by the intraluminal site. The self-expandingimplantable structure 12 may be tracked and delivered in its radially constrained configuration, e.g., by placing theimplantable structure 12 within a delivery sheath or tube and removing the sheath at the valved site. It will be appreciated however that the implantable structure may in some instances be plastically expandable. - The dimensions of the
implantable structure 12 will depend on its intended use. Typically, theimplantable structure 12 will have a length in a range from about 10 mm to about 60 mm for heart valve applications. The first reduced (radially collapsed) diameter of theimplantable structure 12 will usually be in a range from about 2 mm to about 8 mm. The second enlarged (radially expanded) diameter of theimplantable structure 12 will usually be in a range from about 10 mm to about 60 mm. The implantable structure may be fabricated using standard stent fabrication techniques. - Referring now to
FIG. 1E , an alternative embodiment of the anchoringframework 12 is illustrated. In particular, the tubular framework comprising a plurality of struts includes at least threestruts 24 that are longer than the remaining struts. The threeelongate struts 24 are of benefit in providing self orientation of theprosthetic heart valve 10 during implantation. For example, the elongate struts 24 may be easily positioned at the roots of a defective aortic valve annulus so that the heart valve is positioned in the original location of the natural valve. Such self orientation in this case is important because it ensures that openings in left and right coronary arteries are not blocked during and/or aftervalve 10 operation. - Referring back to
FIGS. 1B and 1D , themembrane support 16 is disposed in the flow path when theimplantable structure 12 has been expanded. In particular, themembrane support 16 is expandable from a first reduced profile configuration for endoluminal valve insertion and advancement thorough the vasculature (FIG. 1A ) to a second enlarged profile configuration for operation as a valve (FIGS. 1B-1D ). Themembrane support 16 typically comprises a plurality ofradial ribs 26 extending across the blood flow path of the valve annulas. Preferably, themembrane support 16 comprises a circular or cap-like wire frame extending across an axis of the implantable structure. Themembrane support 16 may have a structure similar to that of and be optionally integrally formed with theimplantable structure 12 so as to define an integral framework. Themembrane support 16 generally comprises resilient metals, such as a superelastic shape memory alloy, e.g., NITINOL™ alloys, tempered stainless steel, spring stainless steels, or the like. Advantageously, themembrane support 16 reduces and/or inhibits movement of theflexible membrane 14 in thesecond direction 20 when the prosthetic heart valve is closed. Further, as illustrated in this embodiment, theimplantable structure 12 and themembrane support 16 are fixed relative to one another and as such do not substantially flex every time the flow path is opened (FIG. 1B ) or closed (FIGS. 1C and 1D ) by theflexible membrane 14. Hence, fatigue and/or failure of theprosthetic valve 10, particularly themembrane support 16 andflexible membrane 14, may be significantly reduced and/or inhibited during continued or prolonged opening and closing of thevalve 10. - The
flexible membrane 14 is disposed in the flow path when theimplantable structure 12 has the second enlarged diameter. Theflexible membrane 14 is expandable from a first reduced profile configuration (FIGS. 1A and 1B ) to a second enlarged profile configuration (FIGS. 1C and 1D ). Theflexible membrane 14 functions as a one-way valve member to efficiently maintain bodily fluid flow in a single direction, as depicted byarrow 18. Theflexible membrane 14 opens and closes with pressure and/or flow change of blood through the body so as to allow the blood to flow in thefirst direction 18 when theprosthetic heart valve 10 is open and to substantially inhibit the flow of blood in the second oropposite direction 20 when theprosthetic heart valve 10 is closed. Theflexible membrane 14 is preferably affixed to acentral portion 28 of themembrane support 16. It will be appreciated that the flexible membrane may alternatively be attached anywhere along the circular wire frame of themembrane support 16 or be attached to theimplantable structure 12. Further, theflexible membrane 14 may be disposed within or outside (not shown) an interior of theimplantable structure 12. In operation, theflexible membrane 14 opens and closes somewhat like an umbrella. Typically, theflexible membrane 14 has a substantially circular shape when theprosthetic heart valve 10 is closed (FIG. 1D ) and a substantially conical shape when theprosthetic heart valve 10 is open (FIG. 1B ). - The
flexible membrane 14 may be formed form a variety of materials including expanded polytetrafluoroethylene or biological materials. Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene may comprise expanded TEFLON™ polymers, high density polyethylene, polyurethane, a combination thereof, or like polymers. Biological materials include homograft (a recent human harvest), allograft (a stored human harvest), or xenograft (a stored animal harvest). Homografts and allografts are rare because of problems of locating and matching human donors in both tissue type and size. Xenofgrafts are common and well accepted, usually from bovine, ovine, swine, or porcine pericardium, or a combination thereof. In some instances, a periphery of theimplantable structure 12 may be covered with a layer of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene or biological materials. An expanded polytetrafluoroethylene or biological tissue covering may promote healing and/or endothelialization as well as provide additional anchoring support for the heart valve. Furthermore, such a covering may aid in incorporation of theimplantable structure 12 within the local tissue (i.e., an endothelial surface may cover the implantable structure 12). Further, at least a portion of theimplantable structure 12,flexible membrane 14, ormembrane support 16 may be coated with an anit-thrombogenic substance, such as anti-coagulants, to minimize or prevent any clot formations. -
FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate cross sectional views of a human heart with the expansibleprosthetic heart valve 10 implanted within or adjacent a mitral valve and aortic valve respectively. The natural flow path of blood through theheart 30 starts from superior and inferior vena cavas 32 to aright atrium 34 and through atricuspid valve 36 to facilitate blood flow from theright atrium 34 to aright ventricle 38. Apulmonary valve 40 facilitates blood flow from theright ventricle 38 to thepulmonary arteries 42. The blood is then oxygenated by the lungs and returned back to the heart viapulmonary veins 44. Amitral valve 46 then facilitates blood flow from aleft atrium 48 to aleft ventricle 50, as shown by the implantedheart valve 10 inFIG. 2A . Anaortic valve 52 facilitates blood flow from theleft ventricle 50 to anaorta 54 for perfusion of oxygenated blood through the peripheral body, as shown by the implantedheart valve 10 inFIG. 2B . -
FIGS. 3A-3C illustrate a method for implanting the expansibleprosthetic heart valve 10 within or adjacent an aorticintraluminal site 52. The method comprises providing aprosthetic heart valve 10 having anexpansible structure 12, aflexible membrane 14, and amembrane support 16. Theexpansible structure 10 is implanted by percutaneously passing avalve delivery system 56 endoluminally through an anatomic passageway to the valvedanatomic site 52 within theheart 30. The anatomic passageway for introduction of thedelivery system 56 into the vasculature may comprise a distal blood vessel, such as femoral or brachial arteries or veins. It will be appreciated that the particular anatomic passageway for entry is dependent upon the particular location of the malfunctioning heart valve to be replaced or repaired. For example, anaortic valve replacement 52 may be achieved through access from the femoral or brachial arteries and through the arch of theaorta 54. Still further, amitral valve replacement 46 may be achieved through access from the venous system, including the inferior and/orsuperior vena cava 32, and a transseptal puncture of an atrial septum from theright atrium 34 to theleft atrium 48. Thevalve delivery system 56 includes acontrol handle 58,injection port 60, and avalve access sheath 62. - As shown in
FIG. 3A , theprosthetic heart valve 10 is collapsed inside thedelivery system 56. The self expandingimplantable structure 12 may be delivered in its radially constrained configuration, e.g., by placing the implantable structure within thedelivery sheath 62 and proximally removing thesheath 62 at the valved site. Once thevalve 10 is positioned in an optimal location, it may be exposed viasheath removal 62 and expanded from a first reduced diameter (FIG. 3A ) to a second enlarged diameter (FIG. 3B ), wherein a flow path extends therethrough. As discussed above, implantation of thevalve 10 may further comprise aligning theimplantable structure 12 within theaortic site 52 with the threeelongate struts 24 to effect self orientation of the valve. In order to remain anchored in theintraluminal site 52, theimplantable structure 12 will remain partially constrained by the intraluminal site. Moreover, a plurality of hooks orradial protrusions 22 may further stabilize theimplantable structure 12 within theaortic site 52. - As shown in
FIG. 3C , theprosthetic heart valve 10 is shown detached from thedelivery system 56 and in its expanded state. Theflexible membrane 14 is positioned in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction and substantially resisting flow in a second direction. In this depiction, thevalve 10 is shown closed so as to prevent any regurgitation or back flow from theaorta 54. Themembrane support 16 is also positioned in the flow path. In particular, themembrane support 16 does not flex during opening and closing of the flow path by theflexible membrane 14. All three components of theprosthetic heart valve 10 are expandable from a first reduced profile configuration for endoluminal valve delivery thorough the vasculature, as shown inFIG. 3A , to a second enlarged profile configuration for operation as a valve, as shown inFIGS. 3B and 3C . It will be appreciated that all three components of theheart valve 10 may also be reduced from the second enlarged profile configuration for subsequent repositioning or retrieval of thevalve 10. The location and the function of theprosthetic heart valve 10 may be tracked by injecting contrast media inside the chambers of theheart 30 and viewing the flow pattern under fluoroscopy. - Referring now to
FIGS. 4A-4D , a second embodiment of the expansibleprosthetic heart valve 10′ constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention is illustrated.

In this embodiment, an expansibleprosthetic heart valve 66 comprises animplantable structure 68, a displaceable,expandable valve member 70, and avalve member support 72. Theimplantable structure 68 is expansible from a first reduced diameter, as shown inFIG. 6A , to a second enlarged diameter, as shown inFIGS. 6B-6D , and has a flow path therethrough. The displaceable,expandable valve member 70 is positionable in the flow path for permitting flow in a first direction 18 (FIGS. 6C and 6D ) and substantially resisting flow in a second direction (FIG. 6B ). Thevalve member support 72 is positionable in the flow path at least when theprosthetic heart valve 66 is closed. Thevalve member 70 andvalve member support 72 are disposed in the flow path when theimplantable structure 68 has the second enlarged diameter. - The displaceable or
moveable valve member 70 in this embodiment is preferably affixed to thevalve member support 72. Beneficially, thevalve member support 72 acts to support thevalve member 70 while thevalve member 70 inhibits the flow of blood in the second direction when the prosthetic heart valve is closed, as shown inFIG. 6B . Thedisplaceable valve member 70 andvalve member support 72 may together comprise anexpandable ball valve 74. Thevalve member support 72 and theimplantable structure 68 preferably comprise a framework of resilient metals, such as a superelastic shape memory alloy, e.g., NITINOL™ alloys, tempered stainless steel, spring stainless steels, or the like. The flexible membrane may comprise expanded polytetrafluoroethylene such as expanded TEFLON™ polymers, high density polyethylene, polyurethane, a combination thereof, or like polymers, which covers thevalve member support 72. - In this embodiment, the
ball valve 74 may be coupled to theimplantable structure 68 at ahinge point 76, wherein theball valve 74 is centrally supported.FIG. 6C illustrates displacement of theball valve 74 at thehinge 76 relative to theimplantable structure 68 so that thevalve 66 is in an open configuration.FIG. 6D illustrates the expandedvalve 66 in an open configuration in theaortic valve 52 of theheart 30 so as to permit flow in afirst direction 18 from theleft ventricle 50 through theaorta 54. - Referring now to
FIGS. 7A-7F , a fourth embodiment of the expansible prosthetic heart valve constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention is illustrated. The prosthetic heart valve remains the same as described above with the exception of how theball valve 74 is displaced. Specifically, as shown inFIGS. 7A-7F , theball valve 74 may be axially slidable or moveable relative to theimplantable structure 68. Theimplantable structure 68 is illustrated in a first reduced diameter, as shown inFIG. 7A , and a second enlarged diameter, as shown in FIGS. 7B and 7D-7F.FIGS. 7C and 7E illustrate theball valve 74 in a first collapsed configuration and in a second expanded configuration inFIG. 7F .FIGS. 7D-7F illustrate placement of the heart valve within theaortic valve 52. In this embodiment, theexpandable ball valve 74 is axially displaced in a longitudinal direction inside theimplantable structure 68 to open and close the heart valve. In particular, the expandableball valve member 74 is restricted at distal and proximal ends 78 of theimplantable structure 68 to ensure that thevalve member 74 remains within theimplantable structure 68. - Although certain exemplary embodiments and methods have been described in some detail, for clarity of understanding and by way of example, it will be apparent from the foregoing disclosure to those skilled in the art that variations, modifications, changes, and adaptations of such embodiments and methods may be made without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention.
