Summary:A shunt comprises a central flow portion configured to fit at least partially within an opening in a tissue wall. The tissue wall is situated between a first anatomical chamber and a second anatomical chamber and the opening represents a blood flow path between the first anatomical chamber to the second anatomical chamber. The central flow portion is further configured to maintain the blood flow path from the first anatomical chamber to the second anatomical chamber, prevent in-growth of tissue within the opening, and expand in response to expansion of the tissue wall. Una derivación comprende una porción de flujo central configurada para encajar al menos parcialmente dentro de una abertura en una pared de tejido. La pared de tejido está situada entre una primera cámara anatómica y una segunda cámara anatómica y la abertura representa un camino de flujo sanguíneo entre la primera cámara anatómica y la segunda cámara anatómica. La porción de flujo central está configurada además para mantener la ruta del flujo de sangre desde la primera cámara anatómica hasta la segunda cámara anatómica, evitar el crecimiento interno de tejido dentro de la abertura y expandirse en respuesta a la expansión de la pared del tejido
