    Abstract: Devices, assemblies, and methods for displacement of leaflets surrounding a prosthetic valve, such as native leaflets or host leaflets of a previously-implanted prosthetic valve, during valve implantation procedures are disclosed herein. As one example, a valve assembly can include a prosthetic valve and a leaflet engagement frame coupled to the frame of the prosthetic valve. The leaflet engagement frame can include a plurality of engagement frame struts defining one or more rungs, and a plurality of spikes that extend in a distal direction from a first rung of struts of the leaflet engagement frame. The distally extending spikes are configured to engage with one or more native or host leaflets positioned outside the valve assembly when the valve assembly is in a partially expanded state, and to distally fold the engaged native or host leaflets when the valve assembly is further expanded.

    Abstract: An implantable prosthetic device can include a frame that is radially expandable and compressible between a radially compressed configuration and a radially expanded configuration. The frame can include a plurality of struts, each strut comprising a first portion and a second portion separated by a deflection point. Each strut can be curved helically with respect to a first, longitudinal axis of the frame. The first portion of each strut can be curved in a first direction with respect to a first line parallel to a second axis that is perpendicular to the first, longitudinal axis of the frame, and the second portion of each strut can be curved in a second direction with respect to a second line parallel to the second axis.
