It was reported that during a mitral valve replacement procedure, an ap360 mechanical heart valve was used.Prior to implantation, leaflet mobility was intact and leaflet closure was normal.After valve placement, saline testing showed that the leaflets could not fully close and significant regurgitation was observed.Adjustment of the leaflet angle was performed; however, repeat saline testing showed persistent incomplete leaflet closure without improvement.It was reported that the ap360 mechanical heart valve was explanted and replaced with a new mechanical valve.No patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.
