Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a female patient, who underwent breast reconstruction with a 225cc mentor smooth round spectrum saline breast prosthesis on the left side, suffered left breast implant deflation, post-procedure.The deflation was diagnosed via visual examination.As a result, the patient underwent bilateral removal and bilateral replacement with two unspecified mentor saline breast prostheses on (b)(6) 2020.The patient was in stable condition after the surgery.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On december 15, 2020, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On december 22, 2020, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation summary: during visual evaluation, an anomaly was observed on the device consistent with a crease/fold on the posterior view.A tear was also observed within the crease/fold measuring approximately 3.5 cm.The evaluation determined that the loss of shell integrity is consistent with a crease fold deflation of the implant shell, which is a known inherent risk of saline-filled mammary prosthesis.Deflation can occur at any time after implantation, but it is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.Creating wrinkles or folds should be avoided during implantation or other procedures as it can result in a deflation in a later time.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time.A second product was received (lot-7671251).No adverse events were reported for this concomitant (contralateral) device, therefore no further analysis is required.As part of our quality process, the manufacturing records of this lot-serial number were reviewed and the manufacturing standards were met prior to the release of this lot.Each device is visually inspected during manufacturing to ensure the device meets the required specifications prior to shipment.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
