Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A prosthesis for implantation within a native valve is disclosed. The prosthesis includes a frame defining a lumen, and a tubular component formed of a flexible sheet that is attached to the frame to extend from a first end of the frame, wherein an interior of the tubular component is configured to support a prosthetic valve and is in fluid communication with the lumen of the frame. The prosthesis also includes a wire at least partially slidably disposed within the flexible sheet of the tubular component and operable to transition the tubular component into a deployed configuration that at least partially engages tissue at the native valve.
