Prosthetic heart valves and methods of implantation thereof are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a prosthetic heart valve includes a self-expandable frame configured to support of valve member and comprising a plurality of interconnected strut members forming a mesh structure. An inflow end and outflow end portions of the mesh structure respectively define an inflow terminal end and an outflow terminal end of the frame. A portion of the frame tapers inwardly from the inflow terminal end to form a reduced diameter section. In implementations, the frame increases in diameter from the reduced diameter section to an intermediate section. In implementations, the valve member is secured to the frame at the inflow end portion. In implementations, the frame further comprises a plurality of retaining arms that extend from the outflow terminal end and are configured to engage with a valve retaining mechanism of a delivery apparatus.
