Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Described embodiments are directed toward methods of making prosthetic valves having leaflets of a particular shape that improves bending character without requiring a long length valve. The method describes making a valve in which each leaflet base is truncated, providing a relatively flat leaflet base, and wherein leaflet base is defined by an attachment line that is perpendicular to the valve axis at the leaflet base.
