Original Abstract Submitted
Devices, systems, and/or methods can provide compliance characteristics to fluid vessels. For example, an implant device can be advanced to a target site in a fluid vessel, such as an aorta. The implant device can include a first anchoring element, a second anchoring element, and/or a torsion element coupled between the first anchoring element and the second anchoring element. The first and/or second anchoring element of the implant device can be deployed at the target site. In one example, the implant device can be used to bias an aorta toward a twisted state for mimicking a healthy aorta and thereby improving blood flow therethrough.
