Manufacturer Narrative

The subject device is not available for evaluation, as it remains implanted in the patient.The investigation is still in progress; therefore, a conclusion has yet to be established.A supplemental report will be submitted accordingly upon investigation completion.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.

Event Description

It was reported that a patient with a 25mm 7300tfx mitral valve implanted for 8 years and 2 months underwent a valve-in-valve procedure due to stenosis and pvl.The patient presented with heart failure and shortness of breath.The procedure was performed successfully with a 26mm 9750tfx transcatheter valve.

Manufacturer Narrative

Added information to d4 (device expiration date) and h4 (device manufacturer date).Updated section b4 (date of this report), g3 (date received by manufacturer), h6 (type of investigation), h6 (investigation findings) and h6 (investigations conclusions).The device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.There were no issues identified that would have impacted this event.Tissue degeneration-related structural deterioration, either calcific or non-calcific, are common chronic failure modes for this type of bioprosthetic heart valve.Operational mechanical stress and biological factors are generally believed to be the major contributors to the non-calcific bioprosthetic tissue degeneration.Structural valve deterioration (svd) can, and typically does, lead to chronic central leaks over a period of time.Svd is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explant and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, noncalcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes may occur singularly or concomitantly.Degeneration-related structural deterioration is most commonly related to patient factors and is not usually an indication of a device malfunction.A definitive root cause cannot be conclusively determined; however, patient factors likely caused or contributed.
