Medtronic received additional information that this product was replaced because the attempted repair with this annuloplasty ring failed due to severe regurgitation.The patient¿s native valve was subsequently replaced with a bioprosthetic valve.The patient had a post-operative course lasting 34 days, with multi organ failure, acute renal failure, liver dysfunction, multiple strokes, arrhythmias, dysplasia.These effects were not directly attributed to the annuloplasty ring.The patient did recover, and was discharged to rehabilitation.The patient was very deconditioned, requiring mechanical breathing and the patient had severe neurological deficits.A good faith effort will be made to obtain the applicable information relevant to the report.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
