Abstract
A prosthetic mitral valve with improved blood flow to the left ventricular outflow tract. The prosthetic mitral valve includes an expandable outer stent having an atrial end and a ventricular end, and an expandable inner stent attached to and at least partially positioned within the outer stent. The inner stent has an inflow end, an outflow end and a tether connector securing a tether. A valve assembly including a cuff and a plurality of leaflets may be disposed within the inner stent. The tether connector is positioned at the inflow end of the inner stent so as to shorten the overall length of the prosthetic valve.
