Abstract:
A medical device for treating a heart valve insufficiency, with an endoprosthesis which can be introduced into a patient's body and expanded to secure a heart valve prosthesis in the patient's aorta. In an embodiment, the endoprosthesis has a plurality of positioning arches configured to be positioned with respect to a patient's aorta and a plurality of retaining arches to support a heart valve prosthesis. The endoprosthesis includes a first collapsed mode during the process of introducing it into the patient's body and a second expanded mode when it is implanted.

Claim (Index 22):
A method of treating a native heart valve, the method comprising:\n positioning a plurality of first arches of an endoprosthesis relative to the native heart valve by placing an apex of each first arch within a respective pocket of the native heart valve, each first arch having an open end opposite the apex and joined to an open end of an adjacent first arch; and positioning a plurality of second arches of the endoprosthesis radially inward of the plurality of first arches, such that the native heart valve is positioned radially inward of at least a portion of the plurality of first arches and radially outward of at least a portion of the plurality of second arches; wherein the endoprosthesis includes a prosthetic valve attached to the plurality of second arches, and at least part of the prosthetic valve extends from the plurality of second arches transversely across an interior of the endoprosthesis.
