Event Description

Medtronic received information that during the implant of this 26mm aortic mechanical valve, it was explanted and replaced with a 24mm mechanical valve of the same model.The reason for the replacement was reported as limited leaflet mobility.It was stated that leaflet motion was not tested with the blue actuator during the implant procedure.It was also stated that the valve was rotated within the annulus in an attempt to obtain appropriate leaflet motion.It was reported that the physician thought that this was a case of patient prosthesis mismatch and that the valve selection was too large and affected leaflet rotation.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
