Product analysis: upon receipt at medtronic¿s quality laboratory, the valve was slightly distorted.The right left commissure and the non-coronary right commissures were detached.All leaflets were in the closed position, however, due to dehiscence at the right non-coronary stent post and left right stent post, the right cusp was crowded and folded within itself.All leaflets were slightly stiff but flexible.No cuspal tear was observed.All leaflets were intact except where the commissure was detached/dehisced.The right cusp and left cusp were slightly prolapsed due to the detached/dehisced commissures.The non-coronary left commissure was intact.The left right commissure and non-coronary right commissure were dehisced, possibly related to separation of the layers of aortic wall behind the commissure.The sutures holding the aortic wall to the stent post were intact.Remnants of pannus were observed on the non-coronary right commissure.Remnants of pannus were also observed on some areas of the sewing ring (outflow).Pannus was attached to the tissue of both dehisced commissures and a thin layer of pannus lined the margin of attachment of all leaflets at the inflow aspect, encroaching approximately 1 mm to the leaflets and into all inferior coaptive area.An unknown amount of pannus appeared to have been removed on the inflow during explant.Radiography revealed calcification at the left right commissure.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
