Aortic Innovations LLC v. Edwards Lifesciences Corporation, No. 24-1145 (Fed. Cir. Oct. 27, 2025)

From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

This appeal concerns devices for transcatheter aortic valve replacement, a procedure in which a prosthetic heart valve replaces a diseased aortic valve. Aortic Innovations LLC appeals from a stipulated judgment of non -infringe- ment of four asserted patents from the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. Aortic argues that the district court’s construction of “outer frame,” on which the stipu- lated judgment o f non-infringement was based, was erro- neous.
