    IT WAS REPORTED THAT ON (B)(6) 2023, A 27MM SJM TAILOR¿ ANNULOPLASTY RING WAS SELECTED FOR IMPLANT TO REPAIR THE MITRAL VALVE. AFTER IMPLANTATION OF THE TAILOR RING, THE PHYSICIAN FOUND THAT THERE WAS STILL A MODERATE REGURGITATION. THE PHYSICIAN ALLEGED THAT THE MATERIAL OF THE TAILOR RING WAS TOO SOFT TO RESHAPE THE ANNULAR. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE ANTERIOR LEAFLET AND THE POSTERIOR LEAFLET COULDN¿T ALIGN WELL. THE PHYSICIAN EXPLANTED THE MITRAL RING AND IT WAS REPLACED WITH A 27MM MASTERS MECHANICAL HEART VALVE INSTEAD. THE PROCEDURE TIME WAS EXTENDED ABOUT 25 MINUTES. THE PROCEDURE WAS FINISHED SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT PATIENT CONSEQUENCE. THE PATIENT REMAINED STABLE THROUGHOUT THE PROCEDURE AND IS CURRENTLY SAFE AND STABLE.
