Abstract: A catheter system for delivering an anchor to a valve annulus in a heart valve includes a locating catheter and an anchor delivery catheter. The locating catheter has a distal end which can be advanced beneath the valve annulus near a target site on an upper surface of the valve annulus. The anchor delivery catheter has a distal end which can be advanced over the valve annulus to deliver an anchor along a delivery path to the target site. The distal end of the locating catheter has at least one magnetic element, and the distal end of the anchor delivery catheter has at least one magnetic element which attracts the at least one magnetic element on the locating catheter to pivotally couple the distal end of the anchor delivery catheter to the distal end of the locating catheter. In this way, the deliver catheter can be pivoted relative to the locating catheter to orient the delivery path away from the locating catheter.
