Event Description

Medtronic received information that during implant of this transcatheter bioprosthetic valve, the confida guidewire and delivery catheter system (dcs) were unable to cross through patient anatomy due to calcification and the angle of the wire.The decision was made to no longer use the transcatheter valve.A new, non-medtronic valve was implanted.No adverse patient effects were reported.Additional information was received that 10 days following the valve implant, the patient complained of pain between the shoulder blades.Computed tomography (ct) revealed aortic dissection with hematoma noted at the distal bend of aortic arch.The patient is being monitored.Per the physician, they believed that the dissection was secondary to the delivery catheter system (dcs) crossing.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
