Abstract

A replacement heart valve prosthesis can be delivered to or within an existing prosthesis through a valve-in-valve delivery procedure. The existing prosthesis can be a prosthetic heart valve or other device that is implanted at a target site, such as an aortic or mitral valve of the heart. The methods provided herein can allow a surgeon to position a replacement prosthesis within or adjacent to an existing prosthesis and permit the replacement prosthesis to expand into engagement against the existing prosthesis. Thereafter, the surgeon can adjust components of the replacement prosthesis, including the position of separate anchor and frame components in order to ensure accurate and secure placement of the replacement prosthesis at the target site.
