1. A transcatheter delivery system comprising:
a catheter assembly comprising:
a balloon shaft;
a balloon mounted onto the balloon shaft, the balloon having a delivery diameter, the balloon in fluid communication with a fluid source for expansion of the balloon from the delivery diameter to a deployed diameter; and
a handle with an actuator, the actuator rotatably engaged with the balloon shaft; and
a valve prosthesis loaded onto the balloon in a loaded configuration, the valve prosthesis expandable from the loaded configuration to a deployed configuration by expansion of the balloon from the delivery diameter to the deployed diameter,
wherein rotation of the actuator by an actuator rotation amount in at least a first direction predictably rotates the valve prosthesis in the first direction by a valve rotation amount that is proportional to the actuator rotation amount.
