Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
A review of the device history record has been completed.No deviations or non-conformances noted.The reported events are physiological complications and analysis of the device generally does not assist allergan in determining a probable cause for these events.Further information from the reporter regarding event, product, or patient details has been requested.No additional information is available at this time.Reason for reoperation: capsular contracture baker grade unknown, exchange from textured to smooth implants due to the concerns with the product.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
Patient reported left implant protrudes toward shoulder blade which they think may be a possible capsular contracture and exchange from textured to smooth implants due to the concerns with the product.Patient representative reported the following: manufacturing defect, failure to warn, design defect, negligence and consumer fraud against a textured implant device.Healthcare provider reported rupture.Healthcare provider provided mri which noted rupture and "findings: breast retropectoral implant.Breast intracapsular rupture.Other: axillary enlarged lymph nodes measuring up to 12 mm short axis containing silicone are likely reactive." a mammogram was also noted that showed rupture.Healthcare provider provided an operative report which noted "capsular contracture baker grade iv and rupture.The implant was noted to be grossly ruptured with extensive silicone and implant material leakage." the device has been explanted.

Event or Problem Description

|
Patient reported left implant "protrudes toward shoulder blade", which they think may be a possible capsular contracture [baker grade unknown], and exchange from textured to smooth implants due to the concerns with the product.Patient representative reported the following: manufacturing defect, failure to warn, design defect, negligence and consumer fraud against a textured implant device.Healthcare professional reported left side findings via mammogram and mri: "breast intracapsular rupture" and "axillary enlarged lymph nodes measuring up to 12 mm short axis containing silicone are likely reactive." healthcare professional later reported left side capsular contracture baker grade iv confirmed during surgery, "implant was noted to be grossly ruptured with extensive silicone and implant material leakage".The device has been explanted.

Clarification to d9 returned to mfg on: device has not been returned.Photos of the explanted device have been analyzed.Continued h.6.Health effect - impact code: f2201 - biopsy.The events of "capsular contracture" and "lymphadenopathy" are physiological complications and analysis of the device generally does not assist abbvie in determining a probable cause for these events.Reason for reoperation: rupture; capsular contracture baker grade iv; "axillary enlarged lymph nodes measuring up to 12 mm short axis containing silicone are likely reactive".Photo analysis: visual analysis of the photographs identified: rupture: observed, opening on the device but cannot perform an assessment of the opening as no microscopic analysis can be performed.Anxiety - product/ procedure: unable to observe as it is a medical event that is not related to the device.Unable to observe as it is a medical event that is not related to the device.Lymphadenopathy: unable to observe as it is a medical event that is not related to the device.Capsular contracture: unable to observe as it is a medical event that is not related to the device.Silicone migration: unable to observe as it is a medical event that is not related to the device.No further actions are required since no issue in the manufacturing of the device is observed.Additional, changed, and/or corrected data: b1, b5, b6, b7, g2, h6, h11.
