Abstract
An implantable prosthetic device can include a radially expandable and compressible frame including an inflow end portion and an outflow end portion. The frame including a plurality of struts, and at least one expansion and locking mechanism having a first member, a second member extending at least partially into the first member, and a third member. The third member can include an engagement portion. The plurality of struts can include a first strut and a second strut pivotably coupled to one another to form an apex, the first strut having a first flange and the second strut having a second flange. When the frame is expanded, distal advancement of the third member can position the engagement member between the first and second flanges such that they engage the engagement member to resist pivoting of the first and second struts relative to one another to resist compression of the frame.
