Manufacturer Narrative
|
An event of mild to moderate aortic regurgitation was reported.A more comprehensive assessment, including a histopathological examination of the valve tissue, could not be performed as the device remains implanted and was not returned for analysis.Based on the information received, the cause of the reported incident could not be conclusively determined but the valve oversizing may have contributed to the reported event.The device history record was reviewed to ensure that each manufacturing and inspection operation was performed and the product met all specifications.There is no indication of a product quality issue with respect to the labeling design or manufacturing of the device.
