Abstract

A method for implanting a prosthetic valve apparatus in a novel location which replaces the function of a native diseased valve after an Alfieri procedure. The prosthetic valve apparatus includes a one way valve and an expandable valve seating. anchoring and securing apparatus in a newly created orifice near or at the center of the anterior valve leaflet. The prosthetic valve apparatus also causes the sealing of the native valve and thus results in a solution for paravalvular leakage and regurgitation.
