Abstract:
An integrated valve prosthesis includes an anchor stent, a tether component, and a valve component. The anchor stent includes a self-expanding tubular frame member configured to be deployed in the annulus of an aortic valve or the aorta. The valve component includes a valve frame and a prosthetic valve coupled to the valve frame, and is configured to be deployed within the anchor stent. The tether component includes a first end coupled to the anchor stent and a second end coupled to the valve frame. In the delivery configuration, the tether component extends in a first direction from the anchor stent to the valve component, and in the deployed configuration, the tether component extends in a second direction from the anchor stent to the valve component. The second direction is generally opposite the first direction. The tether component may set the location of the valve component relative to the anchor stent.

Claim (Index 1):
An integrated valve assembly having a radially compressed delivery configuration and a radially expanded deployed configuration, the valve integrated valve assembly comprising:\n an anchor stent; and a valve component including a valve frame and a prosthetic valve coupled to the valve frame; and a tether component having a first end coupled to the anchor stent and a second end coupled to the valve component, wherein in the radially compressed delivery configuration the tether component extends in a first direction from the anchor stent to the valve component, and in the radially expanded deployed configuration the tether component extends in a second direction from the anchor stent to the valve component, wherein the second direction is generally opposite the first direction, wherein in the radially expanded deployed configuration at least a portion of the valve frame is deployed within the anchor stent, wherein the tether component comprises a tubular skirt, and wherein in the radially expanded deployed configuration, a portion of the tubular skirt is configured to extend proximal of the anchor stent.
