Event Description
|
Medtronic received information that during the implant of this 26mm transcatheter bioprosthetic valve, into an existing medtronic valve with severe central aortic regurgitation, at 80% deployment and immediately after the valve was released from the delivery catheter system (dcs) ¿some¿ left coronary artery flow was noted.However, the patient's pressures began to drop and the patient went into ventricular tachycardia.The patient was defibrillated, cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated, and placed on cardiopulmonary bypass (cpb).A left main coronary artery occlusion was noted due to the previous medtronic valve leaflet.A computed tomography showed the leaflet was long and the coronary height was low at less than 10mm.A stent was placed which restored flow to left main coronary artery.The patient was weaned off cpb and was stable.No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
