Event Description

It was reported a patient with a 23mm 8300ab aortic valve implanted five (5) years, 10 months, was evaluated for valve-in-valve procedure due to stenosis.Patient presented with heart failure and shortness of breath.Tavr was successfully performed with a 26mm non-edwards transcatheter valve.

Manufacturer Narrative

The device history record was reviewed and shows that this device met all manufacturing specifications for product release prior to distribution.No issues were identified that would have impacted this event.Stenosis, which develops progressively over time, can be due to a number of issues.Additionally, there can be a number of potential known and unknown patient-related contributing factors.Structural valve deterioration (svd) is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explant and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, noncalcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes, occurring singularly or concomitantly, may contribute to stenosis and/or regurgitation.Alternatively, non-structural valve dysfunction (nsvd) may also play a role in the development of valvular stenosis.Stenosis is most commonly related to patient factors and is not usually an indication of a device malfunction related to a manufacturing deficiency.The most likely cause is patient factors, including hld and dm.
