Abstract
The present disclosure describes a replacement valve that can remove or lacerate the anterior mitral leaflet (or other portion of the heart) to reduce the obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). The replacement valve can include integrated cutting features to lacerate a leaflet of a heart valve. For example, the cutting features can include blades or electrosurgical features that can cut the leaflets to reduce obstruction of the LVOT. As the cutting features are integrated components of the replacement valve, the laceration of the leaflet can follow implantation of the replacement valve and enables for clinical decisions to be made based on the degree of obstruction to the LVOT following the implantation procedure.
