Manufacturing review of the cormatrix tyke device history record could not be completed as the lot number was not provided.No specific treatment dates were provided aside from patients records selected for this retrospective review occurred between may 2013 and october 2017, however, the tyke product was not released for distribution until may 2016.Information cited in the article states that "patients underwent a mitral valve replacement using the tyke ecm patch to form a custom-made cylinder mitral valve replacement".The instructions for use (art-20712a) provided with the distributed product states under warnings and precautions that "tyke is not indicated for the construction or replacement of total valves or conduits".Although the exact cause of the reported issues cannot be conclusively determined, the reported dehiscence, worsening stenosis and regurgitation are identified in the instructions for use as potential complications provided with the tyke product.Should aziyo receive any additional details related to this event, a supplemental report will be filed.

As part of the post market surveillance process, this retrospective single center, single surgeon study report published in pediatric cardiology titled "mitral valve replacement in pediatrics using an extracellular matrix cylinder valve: a case series" was reviewed.This article summarizes the results of eight (8) children under the age of 2 years who underwent ecm custommade cylinder valves for mitral valve replacement.The study states that these patients were treated between march 2013 and october 2017 using the cormatrix (now aziyo biologics) tyke 2-ply extracellular matrix material (model # / lot #: unknown).This report is focused on the patient #7 as referenced in table 1: summary table of the eight patients who initially underwent mitral valve repair, however under direct inspection, the surgeon determined repair was not feasible and mitral valve replacement was performed due to prior failed avsd repair and severe left atrioventricular valve regurgitation.At the age of 6.5 months, ecm-mv replacement was performed as well as concurrent asd creation.Within days there was acute dehiscence of the papillary muscle with severe regurgitation and the patients rushed to surgery for re-attachment of the otherwise intact ecm-mv to the left ventricle.This patient later developed acute thickening of the ecm-mv 3 weeks after implantation, secondary to thrombus on the ventricular surfaces, which resolved in 2 weeks following therapeutic enoxaparin.They remained with the ecm-mv for a total of 116 days, developing progressive mitral regurgitation through a perforation in the mid-portion of the anterior leaflet and a melody valve was implanted in place of the ecm-mv.The explanted valve was sent for histological evaluation.Attempts to contact the corresponding author have been successful at this time, however, should any additional information be received a follow-up report will be filed.
