摘要:
A method of repairing the heart valve is described. The method includes securing a first tissue anchor to a first posterior portion of annulus between posterior and anterior commissures; securing a second tissue anchor to a first anterior portion of the annulus between the posterior and anterior commissures; and securing a third tissue anchor to a second anterior portion of annulus between the posterior and anterior commissures. At least one tensile member is spanned between the first, second and third tissue anchors and across the orifice of the heart valve. When tension is applied to the at least one tensile member, the posterior portion of the annulus is pulled toward the anterior portion of the annulus.
