Event Description

Medtronic received information via literature regarding surgical procedures for patients with retroperitoneal sarcoma (rps), that involve the inferior vena cava (ivc), the abdominal aorta and in some cases both vessels were involved.All data was collected from multiple centers between 12 september 2018 and 26 may 2021.The study population included 16 patients (predominantly female), cortiva coated medtronic cannulae were used in the right femoral veins and uncoated medtronic cannulae were used in the right internal jugular veins (rijv) (lot numbers not provided).Among all patients, no deaths occurred.Among all patients, adverse events included: an inappropriately placed venous return cannula which resulted in a large volume of blood infused into the right pleural cavity.This necessitated resuscitation and involved a median sternotomy to facilitate vein repair, and the patient recovered.The other adverse event that was observed was a groin haematoma which required drainage.Based on the available information, these adverse events may have been attributed to medtronic products.Among all patients, no device malfunctions occurred.
