Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An articulated prosthesis, left in the patient's heart for repairing a tricuspid or mitral valve, is disclosed. The prosthesis is designed to grip simultaneously all the three leaflets of the tricuspid valve, or two of the mitral valves, so as to make them lay distended fully in the valve plane and assume a final configuration as in the common surgical procedure, with the leaflets pulled towards the center of the valve.
