Conclusion: based on the available information, the failed repair may likely be due to the patient¿s native mitral valve, as the ring and native valve were replaced with bioprosthetic valve.Overall, this event may be due to the patient¿s health conditions, status and co-morbidities.The clinical observation does not indicate a potential manufacturing issue.
