This follow-up mdr is created to document the additional event information received for record #615730.According to the available information this inflatable device was implanted in 2013 and removed/replaced on (b)(6) 2020.Information received from the clinical sales representative indicated: ¿collars on reservoir tubing was disconnected.Minimal saline in the system.¿ a titan pump, two cylinders, and reservoir were received for evaluation.Examination and testing of the returned components revealed a separation in the bladder of cylinder 1.Testing revealed this to be a site of leakage.Microscopic examination of the surfaces revealed them to have burn like marks, indicating contact was made with cauterizing instrumentation.Partial separations within abrasion were noted on both pump exhaust tubes, the exhaust tubing of cylinder 1, and the reservoir inlet tubing.Testing revealed these to not be sites of leakage.Surface abrasion was noted on the pump inlet tubing.Burn like marks were noted on the bladder of cylinder 2.Testing revealed this to not be a site of leakage.No functional abnormalities were noted with the pump, cylinder 2, or reservoir.Because these components were released according to manufacturing and quality control procedures, it was concluded that the observed instrument separation in the bladder of cylinder 1 occurred after the device packaging was opened.In addition, because the expected use of this device combined with the observed separation would have resulted in an earlier detected fluid loss, it was concluded that the separation most likely occurred during or after explant.This separation is not associated with the cause for failure.Because the available information did not indicate what factors may have contributed to the reported "collars on reservoir tubing were disconnected", and because no functional abnormalities were noted with the reservoir, the cause of this reported event could not be determined.A review of the device history record confirmed the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.A review of the complaint history database, nonconformances and capas revealed no trends for this lot.
