    Abstract: An assembly and methods for providing a contoured biological tissue are described. The assembly comprises a first plate and a second plate. The first plate is configured to receive a biological tissue. The second plate is configured to contact and compress the biological tissue received on the first plate. One or both of the first and second plates comprise a defined shape and a contoured area within the defined shape. The contoured area comprises at least first and second elevations. One or more energy sources are associated with one or both of the first and second plates. The one or more energy sources deliver energy upon compression of the biological tissue.

    Abstract: An annuloplasty ring for repair of mitral and tricuspid valves that can be shape adjusted once installed to fine-tune the shape and correct for small errors in the inherently imprecise sizing process. The ring has an adjustable 3D ring core of malleable metal that can be reshaped in real-time during the procedure before or after the patient is weaned off-pump by applying simple displacements to a cable and housing arrangement. The shape of the annuloplasty ring is adjusted incrementally in steps until an optimum level of regurgitation reduction is attained. Once the surgeon is satisfied with the result, the delivery system can be can easily detached from the implant and removed. The thickness of the core could be continuously variable to control how and where deformation occurs. The ring may also incorporate an expansion joint to enable a subsequent valve-in-ring procedure.

    Abstract: An assembly and methods for providing a contoured biological tissue are described. The assembly comprises a first plate and a second plate. The first plate is configured to receive a biological tissue. The second plate is configured to apply a compressive force on the biological tissue that is disposed on the first plate. One or both of the first and second plates comprise a defined shape and a contoured area within the defined shape. The contoured area comprises at least first and second elevations and a continuous transition between the first and second transitions. One or more energy sources is associated with one or both of the first and second plates. The one or more energy sources delivers energy while the second plate applies the compressive force on the biological tissue disposed on the first plate.

    Abstract: A mitral repair annuloplasty ring that will accommodate implantation of a transcatheter valve therein for a valve-in-ring reoperation. The ring has a semi-rigid core with features that allow the ring to better conform to the cylindrical geometry of a transcatheter valve when implanted. The inner core defines a continuous peripheral D-shape with a substantially straight anterior side diametrically across from a more rounded posterior side with arcuate lateral sides therebetween. Segments of the ring core are subject to differing rates of bending due to variable radial thicknesses or radial slits opening to both inner and outer edges around the core periphery. One or more expansion joints may also be used to create the more circular final expanded shape. A plastically expandable sealing sleeve may surround the transcatheter valve for sealing gaps between the valve and annuloplasty ring.
