On (b)(6) 2021, device evaluation was completed.Device evaluation summary: mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.During the visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the mentor memoryshape¿ mh 300cc returned device.A hematoma is a collection of blood within the space around the implant.Symptoms from hematoma may include swelling, pain, and bruising.If a hematoma occurs, it will most likely happen soon after surgery; however, it can occur at any time, such as after an injury to the breast.Small hematomas may be absorbed by the body, while others may require surgery for drainage.Hematoma is a known complication associated with this procedure and is referenced in our product insert data sheet.Mentor concluded that the capsular contracture in the patient´s breast was the result of the body´s individual physiological response to the implantation of a foreign object in soft tissue.Capsular contracture is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.The american society of plastic surgeons recommends and encourages member surgeons to always submit breast implants, capsules, and effusion to pathology for examination.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.This supplemental report is for the patient¿s left-sided device.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
