Medtronic received information that during the implant of this transcatheter bioprosthetic valve, the inline sheath was replaced with a 16f non-medtronic introducer sheath.After the valve was implanted, the sheath was removed and when 16 fr non-medtronic sheath was inserted again, a decrease in blood pressure was observed.Angiography revealed a perforation of the right common iliac artery, which was the access route.Afterwards, a continuous vascular dissection was observed in the distal puncture site (up to the right common femoral artery).A stent was implanted and surgical repair was performed.The injuries may have been caused by the delivery catheter system (dcs).No additional adverse patient effects were reported. .
