Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The mentor failure analysis lab has completed the evaluation of the suspect medical device.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the spec siltex contour 650cc breast implant had an area of siltex cracking on the anterior view.In addition, a tear was noted within the siltex cracking, measuring approximately 0.5 cm.The evaluation determined that the cause of the rupture is consistent with normal wear.Siltex cracking is defined as a material separation occurring in the siltex layer and can eventually progress through the shell of siltex devices.Siltex cracking is ultimately a result of high stresses.A second product was received 5763350 lot number.No adverse events were reported for this concomitant (contralateral) device, therefore no further analysis is required.It should be noted that as part of mentor¿s quality process all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
