Event or Problem Description
It was learned through implant patient registry that a patient with a 21mm 2700 aortic valve underwent a valve-in-valve procedure after an implant duration of 7 years, 1 month due to aortic regurgitation.The patient initially presented with heart failure and shortness of breath.The procedure was performed with a 23mm 9750tfx transcatheter valve.The patient was noted to be in stable condition post procedure and was discharged on pod #4.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.Regurgitation which develops progressively over time can be due to a number of issues including patient related factors or structural valve deterioration.Structural valve deterioration (svd) can, and typically does, lead to chronic central leaks over a period of time.Svd is the most common reason for bioprosthesis explant and encompasses multiple failure modes, including calcification, noncalcific degeneration, dehiscence, cusp thickening or fibrosis, or a combination of these.Such failure modes may occur singularly or concomitantly.Tissue degeneration-related structural deterioration, either calcific or non-calcific, are common chronic failure modes for this type of bioprosthetic heart valve.Operational mechanical stress and biological factors are generally believed to be the major contributors to the non-calcific bioprosthetic tissue degeneration.The most likely cause is patient factors, including coronary artery disease (cad) and rheumatic heart disease.
