Abstract
A prosthetic heart valve for the treatment of structural heart disease wherein the prosthetic heart valve includes an expandable frame that is formed of a rhenium containing metal alloy. The novel geometry of the expandable frame in combination with the frame being partially or fully formed of the rhenium containing alloy enables the formation of a frame that a) has an open cell geometry in the frame of the prosthetic heart valve that can be used to reduce delivery system size, b) has high radial strength, c) has improved restoration of the physiologic EOA, d) has lower recoil, e) has little or no longitudinal foreshortening, f) allows for proper placement of the bioprosthetic valve in relation to the native commissures of the valve, h) has symmetrical and cylindrical expansion of the prosthetic valve resulting in lower rates of leaflet thrombosis and structural valve deterioration, and i) prevents allergic response and restenosis associated with nickel content.
