It was reported that prior to the attempted implant of a transcatheter aortic valve, a pre-implant balloon aortic valvuloplasty (bav) was performed with a non-medtronic 23 millimeter (mm) balloon due to the patient's calcified and bicuspid native valve.Upon deployment of the first 3-4 nodes of the valve, it was identified that the valve was positioned too high relative to the target implant depth of 2 mm on the non-coronary cusp (ncc) and 3 mm on the left coronary cusp (lcc).Subsequently, the valve was recaptured into the delivery catheter system (dcs).Upon the second deployment attempt, an infold was identified.Subsequently, the valve was recaptured, and the system was withdrawn from the patient.An additional pre-implant bav was performed with a non-medtronic 25 mm balloon, and a new valve and dcs were opened and prepped.The second valve was implanted successfully, however the patient went into complete heart block (chb) following the release of the valve.The following day, a permanent pacemaker was implanted for the chb.Per the physician, the patient's bicuspid native valve and calcified anatomy contributed to the infold.A 10 minute procedural delay occurred as a result.
