Abstract

A valvular prosthesis and method of using the prosthesis are disclosed. A valve apparatus is located within a stent apparatus, such that the prosthesis is deformable between a first condition and a second condition, in which the prosthesis has a reduced cross-sectional dimension relative to the first condition, whereby implantation of the prosthesis is facilitated when in the second condition.
