Abstract
Apparatus and methods are described herein including an expandable prosthetic mitral valve device that includes a first component configured to be deployed in a left atrium of the subject and a second component configured to be deployed in a left ventricle of the subject. At least one approximating component approximates the first and second components with respect to each other, such that, when the first and said second components are in an approximated configuration with respect to each other, one or more leaflets of the native mitral valve are trapped within the gap between a ventricular part and an annulus part. The approximating component secures the annulus part and the ventricular part in the approximated configuration. Other applications are also described.
