Abstract

Annuloplasty prosthesis device (), which is suitable for remodeling a native annulus (), comprises a body having the shape of at least one ring portion defining a longitudinal direction, coinciding with or locally parallel to the longitudinal development direction of said body; said portion () being opposite to said first arcuate section (), and the body comprises a first arcuate section () and at least a second segment (); said first arcuate section () is flexible in a first direction, locally transverse to the longitudinal direction, so as to be deformable under flexion along said first direction; said first arcuate section () defines a plane of storage substantially parallel both to the longitudinal direction and to the first direction; said at least a second section () is rigid under flexion in said plane of storage (XY); said second section () is flexible in a second direction (ZZ), transverse to the plane of storage, so as to be deformable under flexion along said second direction.
