MAUDE Adverse Event Report: EDWARDS LIFESCIENCES CARPENTIER-EDWARDS PERIMOUNT MAGNA EASE PERICARDIAL BIOPROSTHESIS; REPLACEMENT HEART VALVE

Model Number	3300TFX
Medical Device Problem Codes	Insufficient Device Problem Information (3190); Patient Device Interaction Problem (4001); Device Stenosis (4066)
Health Effect - Clinical Codes	Dyspnea (1816); Fatigue (1849); Insufficient Information (4580)
Date of Event	05/27/2025
Type of Reportable Event	Serious Injury
Event or Problem Description
It was learned through implant patient registry and investigation that a 19mm 3300tfx aortic valve was explanted after an implant duration of nine (9) years, and eight (8) months due to unknown reason.The explanted valve was replaced with a 23mm 11500a aortic valve.Edwards lifesciences maintains an implant patient registry.This registry is a patient tracking mechanism for serialized edwards implantable devices (bioprosthetic heart valves and annuloplasty rings), rather than a true post-market surveillance registry.Through the registry, edwards is notified when these devices are implanted.In addition, patient and/or device status may be reported to the registry via the implantation data cards.The information is received from various sources (e.G.Surgeon, hospital and patient family members) and is not received in the form of a conventional "customer complaint." the information reported may or may not be related to the edwards device.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: additional manufacturer narrative: attempts have been made to obtain product for evaluation.No device was returned.The investigation is still in progress; therefore, a conclusion has yet to be established.A supplemental report will be submitted accordingly upon investigation completion.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.
Event or Problem Description
It was learned through implant patient registry and investigation that a 19mm 3300tfx aortic valve was explanted after an implant duration of nine (9) years, and eight (8) months due to stenosis, pannus, and ppm.The patient presented with dyspnea and increased fatigue.The explanted valve was replaced with a 23mm 11500a aortic valve.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: additional manufacturer narrative: updated sections b5, b7, g3, g6, h2, h6 (component code, health effect - clinical code, type of investigation, investigation findings, investigation conclusions).Stenosis: stenosis is a common manifestation of bioprosthetic valve and valved conduit dysfunction and has many potential root causes, including structural valve deterioration (svd), non-structural valve dysfunction (nsvd), endocarditis and/or thrombosis.Bioprosthetic device stenosis is typically related to patient and/or procedural factors and is not typically an indication of a device malfunction related to a manufacturing deficiency.There is no evidence to suggest a manufacturing defect caused or contributed to the reported event.The most likely root cause is patient factors, including hyperlipidemia (hld), diabetes mellitus (dm), and coronary artery disease (cad).Pannus: pannus is a non-immune inflammatory reaction of the body to the implanted prosthesis, characterized by proliferation of fibroelastic tissue and collagen, with a starting point in the suture area and subacute or chronic centripetal evolution.Pannus can have both beneficial and harmful effects depending on the amount of growth and location.A small amount of host tissue growth over the suture line is expected and is needed to form a non-thrombogenic surface and complete the healing process after device implantation.In contrast, an excessive amount of pannus growth can cause nonstructural dysfunction that may require intervention.Host tissue growth can extend onto the cusp surfaces leading to thickening of the cusps, cusp retraction or curling, leaflet immobility, and/or abnormal coaptation, potentially resulting in valvular regurgitation, elevated gradients, and/or stenosis.Pannus/host tissue overgrowth is most likely due to patient factors and is unlikely to be related to a manufacturing non-conformance.There is no evidence to suggest a manufacturing defect caused or contributed to the reported event.The most likely root cause is patient factors.Per the instructions for use (ifu), structural valve deterioration (svd) is a known potential risk associated with bioprosthetic heart valves.The device history record (dhr) review was completed and this device passed all manufacturing and sterilization inspections prior to release for distribution.There were no issues identified that would have impacted this event.Edwards will continue to review and monitor all reported events.Trends are monitored on a monthly basis and if action is required, appropriate investigation will be performed.
