Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A valve mounting apparatus having an elongated tubular mesh structure with proximal and distal ends, a cardiovascular structure engagement region disposed between the proximal and distal ends, and a lumen therethrough, the distal end of the structure including a valve engagement region that is configured to engage a first end of a prosthetic valve, the mesh structure being configured to transition from a pre-deployment configuration, wherein the structure is capable of being disposed at a cardiovascular valve region, such as a valve annulus region, to a post-deployment expanded configuration, wherein the cardiovascular structure engagement region is anchored to the cardiovascular valve region.
