Description

VALVULE PR0THE7I0UE IMPLANTABLE PAR CATHETERISME, OU CHIRURGICALEMENT. VALVE PR0THE7I0UE IMPLANTABLE BY CATHETERISM, OR SURGICAL.
La présente invention a pour objet une valvule prothétique implantable par cathéter i sme , ou chi rurg i cal ement .The present invention relates to a prosthetic valve implantable by catheter i sme, or chi rurg i cal ement.
Dans le cas d'une sténose, c'est-à-dire le rétrécissement d'un orifice organique, il est nécessaire d'intervenir pour supprimer ce rétrécissement, et lorsque la sténose intervient au niveau d'une valvule, celle-ci doit être remplacée ch i rurg i cal ement par une valvule prothétique.In the case of a stenosis, that is to say the narrowing of an organic orifice, it is necessary to intervene to remove this narrowing, and when the stenosis occurs at the level of a valve, it must be replaced ch i rurg i cal ely by a prosthetic valve.
On connaît notarnmenl la sténose aortique, laquelle peut résulter d'une fibrose et d'une calcification des valves sigmoïdes, et qui nécessite une exérèse de l'appareil valvulaire aortique et son remplacement par une valvule prothétique.Aortic stenosis is known in particular, which can result from fibrosis and calcification of the sigmoid valves, and which requires an excision of the aortic valve apparatus and its replacement by a prosthetic valve.
Une valvule prothétique est actuellement implantée chi rurg i cal ement . Toutefois certains patients ne peuvent pas être opérés, particulièrement en raison de leur âge avancé, en sachant que la sténose aortique atteint principa ement les personnes âgées.A prosthetic valve is currently implanted surgically. However, some patients cannot be operated, particularly because of their advanced age, knowing that aortic stenosis mainly affects the elderly.
Pour pallier cet inconvénient il a été proposé d'implanter la valvule prothétique par cathéter i sme , c'est- à-dire de l'amener jusqu'au coeur par la voie artérielle, en passant par l'artère fémorale jusqu'à l'aorte sans ouvrir le thorax.To overcome this drawback, it has been proposed to implant the prosthetic valve by iSME catheter, that is to say to bring it to the heart by the arterial route, passing through the femoral artery to the aorta without opening the chest.
Une valvule prothétique implantable par cathéter i sme est décrite dans le document EP 0 850 607, elle comprend une structure expansible et une structure val vul ai re . La structure expansible consiste en un treillis de fils métalliques, de préférence en acier, présentant une forme tubulaire dont l'expansion, dans le sens radial sous l'action d'une pression, lui permet d'atteindre un diamètre prédéterminé, qui de plus correspond à une rigidité optimale dudit treillis. La structure expansible est destinée à être positionnée à l'emplacement de la valvule sténosée, et à y être bloquée par son expansion.A prosthetic valve implantable by catheter is described in document EP 0 850 607, it comprises an expandable structure and a vul val ai re structure. The expandable structure consists of a lattice of metallic wires, preferably of steel, having a tubular shape whose expansion, in the radial direction under the action of a pressure, allows it to reach a predetermined diameter, which moreover corresponds to an optimal rigidity of said trellis. The expandable structure is intended to be positioned at the location of the stenosed valve, and there be blocked by its expansion.
La structure valvulaire est de forme tronco- hyperbol i que et est réalisée en un tissu souple et résistant. Elle est solidarisée par son extrémité de plus grand diamètre à la paroi interne de la structure expansible, sensiblement dans la région médiane de cette dernière, ou à proximité d'une extrémité de celle-ci pour s'étendre à l'intérieur. Plus précisément, la structure valvulaire est solidaire d'un enveloppe tubulaire qui recouvre la paroi interne de la structure expansible et qui assure l'étanchéité de cel e-ci.The valve structure is frusto-hyperbolic and made of a flexible and resistant fabric. It is secured by its end of larger diameter to the internal wall of the expandable structure, substantially in the middle region of the latter, or near one end of the latter to extend inside. More specifically, the valve structure is integral with a tubular envelope which covers the internal wall of the expandable structure and which ensures the sealing thereof.
Ainsi, la structure valvulaire peut être déformée pour passer al ernati ement d'un état fermé à un état ouvert dans la structure expansible, c'est-à-dire que son extrémité de plus petit diamètre peut être évasée ou resserrée, pour alternati ement, s'ouvrir et laisser passer un flux et obturer l'orifice pour éviter une régurgitation.Thus, the valve structure can be deformed to pass al ernati ement from a closed state to an open state in the expandable structure, that is to say that its end of smaller diameter can be flared or tightened, alternately , open and let a flow pass and close the orifice to avoid regurgitation.
En outre, pour guider- son mouvement lors du passage de l'état ouvert à l'état fermé, la structure valvulaire présente des renforts longitudinaux préformés.In addition, to guide its movement when passing from the open state to the closed state, the valve structure has preformed longitudinal reinforcements.
En pratique, après un élargissement de la sténose au moyen d'un ballonnet acheminé par voie artérielle, la valvule prothétique est amenée par la même voie jusqu'à ladite sténose, puis on réalise l'expansion de la structure expansible par le gonflement puissant d'un ballonnet placé à l'intérieur de celle-ci. La structure expansible est ainsi solidement ancrée, dans sa configuration la plus rigide, et la structure valvulaire est foncti onnel 1 e . Or cette valvule prothétique présente un inconvénient. En effet, lors du gonflement du ballonnet, sachant que la pression nécessaire à l'expansion de la structure expansible est de l'ordre de 4 bars, la structure valvulaire est fortement susceptible d'être endommagée en étant plaquée contre ladite structure expansible, ce qui peut se traduire par le percement ou le déchirement du t i ssu .In practice, after a widening of the stenosis by means of a balloon routed by arterial route, the prosthetic valve is brought by the same way to the said stenosis, then the expansion of the expandable structure is carried out by the powerful swelling d '' a balloon placed inside it. The expandable structure is thus firmly anchored, in its most rigid configuration, and the valve structure is functional 1 e. However, this prosthetic valve has a drawback. In fact, during the inflation of the balloon, knowing that the pressure necessary for the expansion of the expandable structure is of the order of 4 bars, the valve structure is highly susceptible to being damaged by being pressed against said expandable structure, this which can result in piercing or tearing the tissue .
D'autre part, la structure valvulaire étant rapportée sur l'enveloppe, cette sol i dar i sa ti on n'est pas fiable dans le temps, il peut survenir une séparation du fait du mouvement de ladite structure valvulaire par rapport à ladite enveloppe.On the other hand, the valve structure being attached to the envelope, this soil i dar i sa ti one is not reliable over time, there may occur a separation due to the movement of said valve structure relative to said envelope .
La présente invention a pour but de proposer une valvule prothétique permettant de remédier à ces divers inconvénients, et plus particulièrement un perfectionnement à la valvule prothétique précédemment décrite.The object of the present invention is to propose a prosthetic valve making it possible to remedy these various drawbacks, and more particularly an improvement to the prosthetic valve previously described.
La valvule prothétique objet de la présente invention comporte une structure rigide expansible et une structure valvulaire solidarisée à ladite structure expansible et apte à être déformée pour passer alternativement d'un étot ouvert à un état fermé, et elle se caractérise en ce que ladite structure valvulaire est solidarisée à une extrémité de ladite structure expansible, et s'étend extérieurement à celle-ci.The prosthetic valve object of the present invention comprises a rigid expandable structure and a valve structure secured to said expandable structure and capable of being deformed to change alternately from an open socket to a closed state, and it is characterized in that said valve structure is secured to one end of said expandable structure, and extends outside thereof.

Si on se réfère aux figures 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b et 2c on peut voir un premier mode de réalisation d'une valvule prothétique 1 selon l'invention, qui comprend une structure rigide expansible 2 et une structure valvulaire 3.- Figures 8a and 8b show perspective views in different representations of the same prosthetic valve during its installation. If one refers to FIGS. 1a, 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b and 2c, one can see a first embodiment of a prosthetic valve 1 according to the invention, which comprises a rigid expandable structure 2 and a valve structure 3.
La structure expansible 2, comme cela est visible uniquement sur les figures 1a, 1b et 1c, comporte un treillis 20 de fils métalliques 21, conformé en un tube apte à être déformé de manière irréversible dans le sens radial, tout en conservant sa forme tubu ire.The expandable structure 2, as can only be seen in FIGS. 1a, 1b and 1c, comprises a trellis 20 of metal wires 21, shaped into a tube capable of being irreversibly deformed in the radial direction, while retaining its tubular shape ire.
On notera que sur ces figures la structure expansible 2 est dans sa configuration déployée, laquelle correspond à une rigidité optimale.It will be noted that in these figures the expandable structure 2 is in its deployed configuration, which corresponds to an optimal rigidity.
Les fils métalliques 21 sont entrecroisés selon une disposition permettant de passer d'un état comprimé à un état développé. Dans le cas d'une valvule prothétique 1 destinée à remplacer les valves sigmoïdes, le diamètre de la structure expansible 2 à l'état replié est de l'ordre de 4 à 8 mm, tandis qu'à l'état développé i est de 20 à 23 mm selon la taille du patient.The metal wires 21 are crisscrossed in an arrangement making it possible to go from a compressed state to a developed state. In the case of a prosthetic valve 1 intended to replace the sigmoid valves, the diameter of the expandable structure 2 in the folded state is of the order of 4 to 8 mm, while in the developed state i is 20 to 23 mm depending on the size of the patient.
La paroi interne de Ici structure expansible 2 est recouverte d'une enveloppe tubuldire 4 qui lui est solidarisée et qui réalise 1 ' étctnchéi té . L'enveloppe 4 est apte à suivre le mouvement d'expansion de la structure expansible 2, elle pourra à cet effet être par exemple plissée lorsque la structure expansible est dans son état repl ié . La structure valvulaire 3 consiste en un tissuThe internal wall of the expandable structure 2 here is covered with a tubular envelope 4 which is secured to it and which carries out the sealing. The envelope 4 is able to follow the expansion movement of the expandable structure 2, it can for this purpose be for example pleated when the expandable structure is in its folded state. The valve structure 3 consists of a tissue
30 conformé en un tronc de cône hyperbolique, c'est-à-dire que sa paroi est concave, dont la base 31, qui correspond au diamètre le plus grand du tronc de cône est solidaire d'un bord extrême de 1 ' envel oppe 4, tandis que l'extrémité 32, correspondant au diamètre le plus petit, s'étend vers 1 ' extér i eur .30 conformed to a hyperbolic truncated cone, that is to say that its wall is concave, the base 31 of which corresponds to the largest diameter of the truncated cone is secured to an extreme edge of the oppus 4, while the end 32, corresponding to the smallest diameter, extends towards the exterior.
Le tissu 30 peut être réalisé en matière plastique tel que du polyuréthanne traité pour éviter une calcification, ou du péricarde également traité contre la calcification, ou tout autre matériau équivalent.The fabric 30 can be made of plastic material such as polyurethane treated to avoid calcification, or pericardium also treated against calcification, or any other equivalent material.
On notera que lorsque la structure valvulaire 3 est réalisée en polyuréthanne, elle peut avantageusement ne faire qu'une seule pièce avec l'enveloppe 4.It will be noted that when the valve structure 3 is made of polyurethane, it can advantageously be made in one piece with the casing 4.
Le tissu 30 est armé de raidisseurs 33 qui s'étendent de la base 31 jusqu'à l'extrémité 32. Ils sont disposés, comme cela est représenté, selon des génératrices courbes du tronc de cône, mais ils peuvent toutefois être disposés hél i coïdalement .The fabric 30 is armed with stiffeners 33 which extend from the base 31 to the end 32. They are arranged, as shown, according to curved generatrices of the truncated cone, but they can however be arranged hel i coidally.
Les raidisseurs 33 peuvent consister en des bourrelets de matière dont est faite la structure valvulaire, ou en des fils de métal tel que de l'acier, et sont de préférence au nombre de 3 ou 4 dans cette con i guration .The stiffeners 33 may consist of beads of material from which the valve structure is made, or of metal wires such as steel, and are preferably 3 or 4 in this configuration.
Les raidisseurs 33 sont formés d'origine pour contraindre la structure valvulaire 3 à la fermeture comme cela est représenté sur les figures 1c et 2c, c'est-à-dire qu'ils sont incurvés en direction de l'a e principal de la valvule prothétique 1, et tendent à se rapprocher les uns des autres. Leur riyidité est toutefois limitée pour permettre l'ouverture de la structure valvulaire 3 par un flux comme cela est ep ésenté sur les figures 1a et 2a, les figures 1b et 2b représentant une étape intermédiaire.The stiffeners 33 are originally formed to force the valve structure 3 to close as shown in Figures 1c and 2c, that is to say that they are curved in the direction of the main e of the prosthetic valve 1, and tend to approach each other. Their riyidity is however limited to allow the opening of the valve structure 3 by a flow as is shown in Figures 1a and 2a, Figures 1b and 2b representing an intermediate step.
Les raidisseurs 33 peuvent être solidaires de la structure expansible 2 et venir en appui extérieur contre la structure valvulaire Ξ à laquelle ils sont sol idarisés par suture lorsque celle-ci est réalisée au moyen de péricarde. Dans le cas d'une structure valvulaire réalisée en polyuréthanne, les raidisseurs 33 peuvent avantageusement y être noyés.The stiffeners 33 may be integral with the expandable structure 2 and come into external support against the valve structure Ξ to which they are sol idarized by suture when the latter is performed by means of pericardium. In the case of a valve structure made of polyurethane, the stiffeners 33 can advantageously be embedded therein.
Dans le cas d'une valvule prothétique 1 destinée à remplacer les valves sigmoïdes, la structure valvulaire 3 est disposée du côté de l'aorte, en sorte que lors de la systole vent r i cul ai re la forte pression du flux sanguin systolique généré par la contraction ven tr i cul ai re fait s'ouvrir la structure valvulaire 3, tandis que lors de la diastole les raidisseurs 33 et l' inversion de la pression sanguine la ferment.In the case of a prosthetic valve 1 intended to replace the sigmoid valves, the valve structure 3 is disposed on the side of the aorta, so that during the ventricular systole the high pressure of the systolic blood flow generated by the contraction ven tr i cul ai re opens the valve structure 3, while during the diastole the stiffeners 33 and the inversion of the blood pressure close it.
La forme tr onco-hyper bol i que de la structure valvulaire 3 permet que l'obturation soit réalisée non pas uniquement au niveau son extrémité 32, mais, du fait que les extrémités de raidisseurs 33 viennent en contact tangent, sur une portion représentant sensiblement un tiers de sa hauteur, en sorte d'obtenir une parfaite étanchéité évitant ainsi une régurgitation.The shape tr onco-hyper bol i that of the valve structure 3 allows the obturation to be achieved not only at its end 32, but, because the ends of stiffeners 33 come into tangent contact, on a portion representing substantially a third of its height, so as to obtain a perfect seal thus avoiding regurgitation.
Si on se réfère à la figure 3, on peut voir que dans une variante, la structure expansible 3 peut, lors de son expansion, prendre une forine concave de manière à faire apparaître dans sa région médiane un rét écissement 34 apte à favoriser sort centrage sur le lieu de son implantation.If we refer to Figure 3, we can see that in a variant, the expandable structure 3 can, during its expansion, take a concave forine so as to make appear in its median region a narrowing 34 capable of favoring fate centering at the place of its establishment.
En référence à la figure 4, on peut voir que dans une autre variante, le centrage de la structure expansible 3 est facilité par la présence un étranglement Si on se ré fè re maintenant aux figures 5a, 5b, 5c, 6a, 6b et 6c, on peut voir un second mode de réalisation d'une valvule prothétique 1' selon l'invention. Cette valvule prothétique 1' comprend également une structure expansible 2 couverte inté ieuremen d'une enveloppe 4 et une structure valvulaire 3 de forme tronconique.With reference to FIG. 4, it can be seen that in another variant, the centering of the expandable structure 3 is facilitated by the presence of a constriction If we now refer to Figures 5a, 5b, 5c, 6a, 6b and 6c, we can see a second embodiment of a prosthetic valve 1 'according to the invention. This prosthetic valve 1 ′ also comprises an expandable structure 2 covered internally with an envelope 4 and a valve structure 3 of frustoconical shape.
La structure valvulaire 3 est équipée de six raidisseurs régulièrement espacés, deux raidisseurs 36, opposés diamé ralement, et quatre raidisseurs 37.The valve structure 3 is equipped with six regularly spaced stiffeners, two diametrically opposed stiffeners 36, and four stiffeners 37.
Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 6a, 6b et 6 c, les raidisseurs 36 sont conformés pour s'éloigner l'un de l'autre, tandis que les raidisseurs 37 sont conformés pour se rapprocher les uns des autres. Du point de vue réalisation, par exemple, les raidisseurs 36 sonl disposés à l'intérieur de la structure valvulaire 3 tandis que les i aidisseurs 37 sont placés à 1 ' extér leur .As can be seen in FIGS. 6a, 6b and 6c, the stiffeners 36 are shaped to move away from one another, while the stiffeners 37 are shaped to get closer to each other. From the production point of view, for example, the stiffeners 36 are arranged inside the valve structure 3 while the aiders 37 are placed outside.
Sur les figures 5a et 6a, qui représentent une systole ventr cul i r e . structure valvul ire 3 s'ouvr sous la poussée F du flux sanguin. Ptr contre sur les figures 5c et 6c, qui représentent une diastole, après une étape in er édiaire représentée sur les figures 5b et 6b, la structure valvulaire 3 se ferme comme deux feuillets accolés l'un à l'autre, en ce sens que les raidisseurs 36 tirent le tissu 30 vers l'extérieur tandis que les-, raidisseurs 37 se rejoignent deux à deux, ce qui entraîne, en association avec la pression sanguine aortique P, l'aplatissement de la structure valvulaire 3. La structure valvulaire 3 aplatie, tendue par¬ les raidisseurs 36 et accolée à elle-même sur une grande surface, nt présente pas de p is susceptibles de créer des fuites engeridrant une régurgitation comme dans le premier mode de réalisation. On notera que selon une variante, non représentée, la structure valvulaire 3 peut ne comporter que les deux raidisseurs 36. Dans ce cr , lors d'une diastole, les raidisseurs-. 36 en s'élcignant l'un de l'autre tendent la structure valvulaire 2, et la pression sanguine aortique P qui complète l'aplatissement et la fermeture. Si on se réfère maintenant aux figures 7a et 7b, on peut voir une valvule prothétique 1 en cours d'implantation, sachant que l'impl ntation d'une valvule prothétique 1' est réalisée de la même manière.In Figures 5a and 6a, which show a ventral cul ole systole. valve structure 3 opens under the thrust F of the blood flow. Ptr against on FIGS. 5c and 6c, which represent a diastole, after an in er ediary step shown in FIGS. 5b and 6b, the valve structure 3 closes like two sheets placed side by side, in the sense that the stiffeners 36 pull the tissue 30 outwards while the stiffeners 37 join two by two, which causes, in association with the aortic blood pressure P, the flattening of the valve structure 3. The valve structure 3 flattened, stretched by ¬ the stiffeners 36 and attached to itself over a large area, does not have a pis likely to create leaks engeridrant regurgitation as in the first embodiment. It will be noted that according to a variant, not shown, the valve structure 3 may only comprise the two stiffeners 36. In this cr, during a diastole, the stiffeners. 36 moving away from each other tighten the valve structure 2, and the aortic blood pressure P which completes the flattening and closing. Referring now to Figures 7a and 7b, we can see a prosthetic valve 1 during implantation, knowing that the implantation of a prosthetic valve 1 'is performed in the same way.
La structure expansible 2 est repliée, et est montée sur un ensemble d'éléments destiné à réaliser son expansion. Cet ensemble comprend une sonde 5 sur laquelle est enfilée une tige 50 comportant non loin de son extrémité un ballonnet 51 qui prend place à l'intérieur de la structure expansible 2, contre l'enveloppe 4, et de manière qu'il ne déborde pas au-dessus de la 1 igné de jonction de la structure valvulaire 3 à l'enveloppe 4.The expandable structure 2 is folded, and is mounted on a set of elements intended to achieve its expansion. This assembly comprises a probe 5 on which is threaded a rod 50 comprising not far from its end a balloon 51 which takes place inside the expandable structure 2, against the envelope 4, and so that it does not overflow above the 1 igneous junction of the valve structure 3 to the envelope 4.
La tige 50 comporte deux conduits, non visibles, dans l'un desquels passe la sonde 5, tandis que l'autre débouche dans le ballonnet 51 pour permettre le gonflement de celui-ci .The rod 50 has two conduits, not visible, in one of which passes the probe 5, while the other opens into the balloon 51 to allow it to swell.
Si on se réfère maintenant aux figures 8a et 8b, on peut voir que le gonflement du ballonnet 51 permet l'expansion de la structure expansible 2.If we now refer to FIGS. 8a and 8b, it can be seen that the inflation of the balloon 51 allows the expansion of the expandable structure 2.
Le ballonnet 51 n'est en contact qu'avec l'enveloppe 4 en sorte que la structure valvulaire 3 ne risque pas d'être endommagée par le gonflement.The balloon 51 is in contact only with the envelope 4 so that the valve structure 3 does not risk being damaged by the swelling.
D'autre part, la position du ballonnet. 51 en dessous de la ligne de jonction de la structure valvulaire 3 avec l'enveloppe 4 évite un risque d ' endommagement au niveau de cette jonction et d'évasement de la structure valvulaireOn the other hand, the position of the balloon. 51 below the junction line of the valve structure 3 with the casing 4 avoids a risk of damage at this junction and flaring of the valve structure
3.3.
Outre que, comme vue précédemment, la structure valvulaire 3 ne peut pas être endommagée lors de sa mise en place, la valvule prothétique 1, selon l'invention présente de nombreux avantages par rapport aux valvules prothetiques existantes et notamment celle décrite dans le document EP 0 850 607 .Besides that, as seen previously, the valve structure 3 cannot be damaged during its installation, the prosthetic valve 1, according to the invention has many advantages compared to existing prosthetic valves and in particular that described in document EP 0 850 607.
Ainsi, la prolongation de l'enveloppe 4 par la structure valvulaire 3 et la sol î dar i sati on de cette dernière à la structure expansible 2 conduit à une fabrication plus aisée et à une plus grande fiabilité dans le temps.Thus, the extension of the casing 4 by the valve structure 3 and the sol i dar i sati on of the latter to the expandable structure 2 leads to easier manufacture and greater reliability over time.
D'autre part, le passage de l'état ouvert à l'état fermé, et inversement, est plus facile, du fait d'une plus grande liberté de débattement de la structure valvulaire 3 sur l'enveloppe 4.On the other hand, the transition from the open state to the closed state, and vice versa, is easier, due to greater freedom of movement of the valve structure 3 on the casing 4.
La valvule prothétique selon l'invention est prévue pour être implantée par cathétérisme comme cela a été vu précédemment, elle peut toutefois être implantée chi rurgi calement à coeur ouvert en présentant des avantages par rapport aux valvules prothétique usuelles.The prosthetic valve according to the invention is intended to be implanted by catheterization as has been seen previously, it can however be implanted chi rurgi calmly with an open heart having advantages compared to the usual prosthetic valves.
Ainsi, la structure expansible métallique 2 de valvule prothétique selon l'invention peut, après sa mise en place dans l'orifice valvulaire, éventuellement au moyen d'un ballon de dilatation, être suturée sur le pourtour de l'anneau valvulaire.Thus, the metallic expandable structure 2 of the prosthetic valve according to the invention can, after its positioning in the valve orifice, optionally by means of an expansion balloon, be sutured around the periphery of the valve ring.
Avantageusement, la valvule prothétique selon l'invention ne comporte pas le gros anneau téfloné des valvules prothetiques usuelles, qui est destiné à permettre la suture, en sorte que le calibre d'ouverture est bien supérieur. A titre d'exemple, une valvule prothétique selon l'invention présente une ouverture comprise entre 3,1 et 4,1 cm2, tandis que celle d'une valvule prothétique usuelle est de 1 'ordre de 2 cm2. Advantageously, the prosthetic valve according to the invention does not include the large teflon-coated ring of the usual prosthetic valves, which is intended to allow suturing, so that the opening caliber is much greater. By way of example, a prosthetic valve according to the invention has an opening of between 3.1 and 4.1 cm 2 , while that of a conventional prosthetic valve is of the order of 2 cm 2 .
