Abstract
A prosthetic implant transitionable between a delivery configuration and a deployed configuration in-situ, the prosthetic implant includes a first frame subcomponent and a second frame subcomponent. The first frame subcomponent and the second frame subcomponent each include a proximal end and a distal end. The second frame subcomponent is coupled to the first frame subcomponent. When situated in the delivery configuration, the first frame subcomponent and the second frame subcomponent are longitudinally offset from one another. When transitioned to the deployed configuration in-situ, the first frame subcomponent is nested within an interior region defined by the second frame subcomponent. The prosthetic implant is configured to capture one or more of the native leaflets of a native valve when the first frame subcomponent and the second frame subcomponent are nested in-situ.
