Abstract:
Prosthetic implant systems for diameter adaptation may be provided. The systems may provide for increased flexibility of providing implants having various diameters, and reducing expense associated with keeping a stock of implants at various sizes. Embodiments as disclosed herein may utilize a prosthetic implant having a docking frame that may be configured to expand to a range of working diameters. The docking frame may dock with a valve frame that may be configured to expand to a working diameter that is more closely tailored to the diameter of the implantation site. The valve frame may have a lesser range of expansion of working diameters than the docking frame.
