摘要

Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) faces challenges of stent migration and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. Traditional stents fail to meet the demands of systolic high pressure, dynamic saddle-shaped annular contraction, and diastolic LVOT protection, while auxiliary anchoring devices may cause tissue damage. To address these issues, we propose a dual-layer lantern-shaped nitinol stent (L-NiTi) with a pressure-responsive diameter modulation. Using SAPIEN 3 Ultra cylindrical cobalt-chromium (C-CoCr) and cylindrical nitinol (C-NiTi) stents as controls, we constructed a finite element native valve stent prosthesis interaction model under cardiac cycle pressure loading to quantify the performance of the stents. Results showed that the L-NiTi exhibited a maximum strain of 8.9%, a 9.17% ± 3.12% loss in prosthetic leaflet area (compared to a 23% loss in controls), a 34 N increase in systolic migration resistance, and an axial displacement of 1.28 mm (compared to 2.16 and 4.78 mm in C-CoCr and C-NiTi controls, respectively). The improved asymmetric lantern-shaped stent maintained a 32 N increase in migration resistance while increasing the neo-LVOT area from 2.52 to 2.81 cm2. The proposed new design of stent for TMVR enhances anchoring without compromising LVOT, demonstrating translational potential for TMVR.
