Claim:
1. A handle assembly for a prosthesis delivery device, the handle assembly comprising: a first handle comprising a housing having a distal end and a proximal end, and a first handle locking mechanism; wherein the first handle is fixed relative to the prosthesis delivery device, and a rotatable handle is rotatable relative to the first handle; the rotatable handle comprising: wherein unlocking of the rotatable handle locking mechanism permits a first rotation of the rotatable handle to longitudinally retract the at least one first trigger wire in a proximal direction and release the at least one first trigger wire from the proximal end of the prosthesis, wherein unlocking of the first handle locking mechanism permits a second rotation of the rotatable handle to longitudinally retract the at least one second trigger wire in a proximal direction and the release the at least one second trigger wire from the distal end of the prosthesis, wherein the at least one second trigger wire cannot be released from the prosthesis until the at least one first trigger wire is released from the prosthesis and wherein the first handle locking mechanism cannot be unlocked until the rotatable handle locking mechanism is unlocked.
