Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for use with a valve of a heart. An implant (100) includes a wing (120); a flexible frame (124); and a pair of anchor receivers (150). A pair of shafts (660) are transluminally advanced through a catheter (40), while the shafts are each engaged with a respective anchor receiver (150), to deploy the implant out of the catheter such that the wing extends away from the anchor receivers and over a first leaflet of the valve and toward an opposing leaflet of the valve, with a contact face (122) of the wing facing the first leaflet. A pair of drivers (70) secure the implant using a pair of anchors (30) to anchor each anchor receiver to tissue at respective sites of the heart. Other implementations are also described.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for prosthetic valves. An implantation site may comprise a native heart valve or another implantation site in examples. Examples may be utilized for improved anchoring and sealing of flow (e.g., paravalvular leakage) with a native heart valve having calcification. Examples may include breaking up calcification of a native heart valve to improve deployment to the native heart valve.
