    摘要: A prosthetic valve including a leaflet frame configured to be transitioned from a collapsed state having a first diameter to an expanded state having a second diameter that is larger than the first diameter. The leaflet frame has an inlet and outlet end and defining a longitudinal axis. The leaflet frame includes a plurality of frame members that form a framework defining plurality of cells each having an interior cell space, the plurality of cells including an attachment cell. The plurality of frame members includes a plurality of sub-cell attachment members extending into the interior cell space of the attachment cell, the sub-cell attachment members each being configured to define a plurality of attachment locations along a sub-cell attachment line defined within a plane that intersects with the longitudinal axis such that the sub-cell attachment line extends through the interior cell space of the at least one attachment cell.
