Summary:An apical pad for securing a prosthetic heart valve within a native valve annulus. The apical pad includes a first collar, a second collar and plurality of struts extending between the first collar and the second collar. The plurality of struts has a delivery condition in which the plurality of struts collectively form a first cross-section and a deployed condition in which the plurality of struts collectively form a second cross-section greater than the first cross-section. The apical pad may be coupled to a tether extending from a prosthetic heart valve and may transition from the delivery condition to the deployed condition by tensioning the tether.
