Abstract
A prosthetic valve includes a frame and a flow control component. The frame has an aperture extending through the frame about a central axis. The flow control component is mounted within the aperture and is configured to permit blood flow in a first direction approximately parallel to the vertical axis from an inflow end to an outflow end of the flow control component and to block blood flow in a second direction, opposite the first direction. The frame has an expanded configuration with a first height along the central axis, a first lateral width along a lateral axis perpendicular to the central axis, and a first longitudinal length along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to the central axis and the lateral axis. The frame has a compressed configuration with a second height less than the first height and a second lateral width less than the first lateral width.
