Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A device for joining together the flaps of a tricuspid valve by joining them together while they arm kept aligned along the valve plane, is provided with a plurality of arms each having a first end fixed on a cylindrical proximal body and a second end fixed to a cylindrical distal body, in which each arm is made of shape memory material and is configured to assume a radially expanded position with an elbow bend so that, when they are in said radially expanded position with an elbow bend, they define as many radially oriented coplanar supports to support flaps of a tricuspid or mitral valve.
