Event Description
|
Medtronic received information via literature regarding a (b)(6) year-old female patient, pregnant with twins.The patient has a history of double-outlet right ventricle who at age (b)(6) underwent a rastelli procedure to create a right ventricle-pulmonary artery conduit (rvpac).At (b)(6) year of age she underwent replacement of the rvpac with a 2-mm medtronic contegra bioprosthetic valved conduit (no serial number provided).At (b)(6) years of age the patient presented at 6 weeks¿ gestation with new year heart association (nyha) class ii functional symptoms with loud systolic/diastolic murmurs.Echocardiography confirmed moderate rvpac stenosis/regurgitation and elevated right ventricular (rv) systolic pressures.At 13 weeks¿ gestation, the patient underwent cardiac catheterization/angiography where rvpac calcification was noted, with significant elevated transvalvular gradients, conduit regurgitation, and obstructed conduit inflow/outflow.Rvpac angioplasty was performed, but elevated rv pressures persisted.The patient then underwent stenting and transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation with a 22-mm medtronic melody bioprosthetic valve (no serial numbers provided).At more than 23 weeks¿ gestation the patient experienced intrauterine demise of one of the two fetuses from unknown causes.At more than 30 weeks¿ gestation one fetus was delivered stillborn along with one live infant birth.Follow-up echocardiography at 2 years post-implantation noted excellent results with trace valvular regurgitation.No additional adverse patient effects or product performance issues were reported.
