A method of replacing a native cardiac valve with a prosthetic cardiac valve, the method comprising: expanding a wire mesh scaffolding in a chamber of the heart on a retrograde side of the native cardiac valve; while the scaffolding is expanded on the retrograde side of the valve positioning the prosthetic cardiac valve at the site of the native cardiac valve; expanding the prosthetic cardiac valve to replace the native cardiac valve; and collapsing the scaffolding to a collapsed state and removing the collapsed scaffolding from the chamber of the heart.
