Manufacturer narrative: clinical code: 4499 - renal impairment - right lower pole renal infarct.Further details state "sequela of renal infarct in the right lower pole".Impact code: 4648 - insufficient information - event of right lower pole renal infarct reported , patient outcome at time of reporting is unknown.Device problem code : 3190 - insufficient information - no device failure /deficiency has been reported.Component code: 4755 - part/component/sub-assembly term not applicable.Type of investigation: 4110 - trend analysis: - thoraflex hybrid sales (b)(6) 2021 - (b)(6) 2025 vs thoraflex hybrid infarction events (b)(6) 2021 - (b)(6) 2025 gave an occurrence rate of 0.018% no trend requiring action has been identified.4111 - communication interview: additional information has been requested to aid this investigation; however no additional information was received to date.3331 - analysis of production records: full batch review performed from base fabric to finished product for device id- (b)(6) which confirmed the batch was manufactured to specification with no issues found.4117 - device not returned: device remains implanted 4112 - analysis of information provided by user/third party - scans were received - pre-operation the patient presents with an aortic dissection with a primary entry tear distal to the left subclavian artery and retrograde dissection extending to the ascending aorta.The true lumen is narrow through the descending aorta.There is no mural thrombus through the aorta the right renal artery emerges from the true lumen and is fully patent.There is no suggestion of any right kidney infarct pre-op.Post operation: the thoraflex hybrid device has been implanted with a proximal anastomosis at the sino tubular junction.The three branches are fully patent.The stent rings of the thoraflex hybrid device are relatively well expanded considering the narrow true lumen.The thoraflex hybrid device is full patent.The right renal artery is patent.There is a non-enhanced region of the lower pole of the right kidney indicating infarct.Conclusion: there is an infarct of the lower pole of the right kidney demonstrated in the post-operative imaging.The thoraflex hybrid device is fully patent, with no thrombus formation.Review of the imaging indicates the thoraflex hybrid device is performing as intended with no device deficiencies identified.Investigation findings: 213 - no device problem found - no device deficiency / defect was reported and full batch review was performed from base fabric to finished product for device i.D - (b)(6) which confirmed the device was manufactured to specification with no issues found.Investigation conclusion: 4315 - cause not established - as device was manufactured to specification with no issues found and no device failure / deficiency was reported and scan review shows the thoraflex hybrid device was performing as intended, no causal link between the event and the device could be established.
