Abstract

This invention relates to improvements in prosthetic cardiac and venous valves and implantable medical devices (10) having moveable septa. The inventive prosthetic cardiac and venous valves have metallic or pseudometallic valves coupled to metallic or pseudometallic stents that permit percutaneous delivery of the devices.
