It was reported that on (b)(6)2026, a 25 mm navitor vision valve was selected for implant using a small navitor loading system and a small flexnav delivery system.During the procedure, pre-dilatation was performed using a 20 mm non-abbott balloon.The balloon diameter did not exceed the minimum annular diameter.The native annular measurements were reported as an annulus perimeter of 62.1 mm, a perimeter-derived diameter of 22 mm, an annular area of 357.5 mm², and an lvot measurement of 20.5 mm.In the user's opinion, there was sufficient calcium present to allow anchoring of the device, with a reported calcium score of approximately 1200.The patient's aortic valve angle was reported as rao 7 / cra 3 in 3-cusp view and rao 30 / cau 14 in alternative 2-cusp view.The implant depth at 80% deployment was reported as 2-3 mm.Prior to final deployment, the implanter reported that the delivery system was maintained in a neutral/slight forward-pressure position and that the guidewire was pulled to a mid-ventricular position to deflect the nosecone.All three tabs were reportedly confirmed released.After 80% deployment, the valve migrated during the final 10% of deployment and dove very low into the left ventricle (lv).The implant depth at release prior to migration was reported as 2-3 mm.The final implant depth of the valve after migration was reported as 12-15 mm.No attempt was made to snare or reposition the valve.No surgical intervention was required.No coronary artery obstruction related to the migrated valve was reported.No entanglement between the delivery system and the navitor valve was reported during removal of the delivery system.The valve was not resheathed more than two times, and no post-dilatation was performed.The implanter reported that the cause of the migration was unknown.The intervention performed to address the event consisted of implantation of a 23 mm non-abbott valve within the index navitor valve.No patient issues, adverse events, clinical signs, or symptoms were reported during or after the procedure.The patient remained hemodynamically stable throughout the procedure.No initial or prolonged hospitalization due to the event was reported, and no clinically significant delay occurred.The patient's status was reported as discharged.
