Medtronic received information via literature review regarding a study performed to compare outcomes following aortic valve replacement (avr) with an edwards perimount versus a medtronic mosaic bioprosthesis.The study population included 1,219 patients (predominantly male; mean age 73.6 years), 355 of which were implanted with medtronic mosaic bioprosthesis (serial numbers not provided) at a single swedish institution between 2002 and 2010.During a mean follow-up of 4.2 and 6.9 years, there were 177 deaths in the mosaic group.The unadjusted survival at 1, 5, and 8 years was 92%, 80%, and 57%, respectively, in the mosaic group.None of the deaths were attributed to medtronic product.Among all patients in the mosaic group, the unadjusted freedom from reoperation at 1, 5, and 8 years was 99.7%, 98.4%, and 97.0%, respectively.A total of 10 patients required reoperation with explantation or a valve-in-valve procedure: 8 due to unspecified structural valve dysfunction (svd) and 2 due to endocarditis.Reoperation for svd within 48 months was performed in 3 patients.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
