App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
Lotus valve became unlocked during release from the delivery system. This may lead to percutaneous insertion of another valve, resulting in a Valve in Valve (ViV) implantation. If this occurs, the first valve could embolize and it may be necessary to convert the patient to surgery.
