The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on november 17, 2021.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection, microscopic examination of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the siltex mod+prof xtra 295cc breast implant was found to have a tear on the anterior view, measuring approximately 6.9 cm.A microscopic examination was performed, and the cause of the tear could not be identified.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device lot number, and no non-conformances were identified.Although no conclusion could be reached on the cause of the reported event, the instructions for use contain the following caution: rupture can occur at any time after implantation, but it is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.The following things may cause the implant to rupture: damage by surgical instruments; stressing the implant during implantation and weakening it; folding or wrinkling of the implant shell; excessive force to the chest (e.G.During closed capsulotomy); trauma; compression during mammographic imaging; and severe capsular contracture.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
