Set forth are vascular valves and servovalves and methods of using the same that may be positioned in the circulatory system without interrupting blood flow to facilitate solid organ transplantation so as to reduce graft organ anoxia and degradation before and after harvesting and storage, thereby minimizing late-term cardiac allograft vasculopathy as a major cause of graft failure. Along the urinary tract, bypassing bladder-generated urge sensation by diverting urine directly from the ureters to a neobladder or collection bag alleviates intractable incontinence, nocturia, urethral syndrome, overactive bladder, dysuria, or frequency. Where the lower tract is missing, a prosthesis can thwart disease and preclude the degenerative metaplastic transition to carcinoma risked when gut is used to construct a conduit for urine, a neobladder, and / or high-maintenance stoma. Druglines to valves and servovalves can directly pipeline-target medication to nidi, anastomoses, or any other trouble spots.
