Abstract:
Embodiments of a radially collapsible and expandable prosthetic heart valve are disclosed. A prosthetic heart valve includes a valve structure and a frame. The valve structure includes a plurality of leaflets, and the leaflets are configured to move from an open configuration to a closed configuration. The valve structure is coupled to the frame. The frame includes an inflow end, an outflow end, a longitudinal axis extending from the inflow end to the outflow end, and a plurality of struts forming a plurality of rows of cells. Each row of cells extends in a circumferential direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Adjacent cells in a row of cell are coupled together at a junction of the struts defining the adjacent cells, and at least one junction in one row of cells has a shape that is different than at least one other junction of the one row of cells.
