Abstract

An implantable device system for controlling the dimensions of internal anatomic passages corrects physiologic dysfunctions resul from a structural lumen which is either too large or too small Implantable devices are disclosed which employ various mechanism adjusting and maintaining the size of an orifice to which they are attached (102) Systems permit the implants to be implanted usin minimally invasive procedures and permit final adjustments to the dimensions of the implants after the resumption of normal flow anatomic fluids in situ.
