Medtronic received information via literature review that (b)(6) year-old male patient with a history of a ross procedure due to aortic stenosis underwent the implant of a 27 mm mosaic bioprosthesis in the pulmonary position and a 25 mm mosaic bioprosthesis in the aortic position.Two years later, the patient presented with dyspnea, weakness and fatigue.It was noted that the pulmonary bioprosthesis had been mal-rotated, resulting in increased gradients and stenosis.Multiple stents were placed to extend across the right ventricular outflow tract (rvot), the pulmonary bioprosthesis and into the pulmonary artery.A balloon aortic valvuloplasty (bav) was then performed to rotate the axis of the valve.A medtronic transcatheter bioprosthetic pulmonary valve was successfully implanted with no resulting regurgitation or stenosis.No other adverse patient effects were reported.No serial numbers were provided.
