Abstract: A replacement heart valve implant includes an expandable framework including a commissure post and defining a central lumen, and a valve leaflet disposed within the central lumen, the valve leaflet including a mounting tab secured to the expandable framework at the commissure post. The commissure post is configured to hold the mounting tab in compression. A tool for assembling a replacement heart valve implant includes a tool body comprising first and second body portions, first and second handle portions extending from the body portions, and first and second post engagement arms extending from the body portions. Translation of the first handle portion toward the second handle portion translates the first post engagement arm away from the second post engagement arm.
