METHODS FOR TREATING A DEFICIENT NATIVE MITRAL VALVE
Abstract: a method of treating a deficient native mitral valve includes advancing a steerable distal end portion of a first catheter through a patient's vasculature, advancing the distal end portion of the first catheter into the patient's heart to position the distal end portion of the first catheter adjacent the native mitral valve, advancing a distal end portion of a second catheter from a distal end of the first catheter, the distal end portion of the second catheter forming a second curve when advanced from the first catheter, and deploying a support structure from the second catheter such that the support structure extends around native leaflets of the native mitral valve within a left ventricle of the heart, the support structure extending in a circumferential direction around the native leaflets and around an axis extending from a left atrium of the heart through the native mitral valve to the left ventricle.
