A device for treatment of mitral annulus dilatation comprises an elongate body
having two states. In a first of these states the elongate body is insertable into
the coronary sinus and has a shape adapting to the shape of the coronary sinus.
When positioned in the coronary sinus, the elongate body is transferable to the
second state assuming a reduced radius of curvature, whereby the radius of curvature
of the coronary sinus and the radius of curvature as well as the circumference
of the mitral annulus is reduced.
