Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On november 8, 2021, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation on november 14, 2021, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation 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 rnd 475cc breast implant had an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view.In addition, a tear was noted within the siltex cracking, measuring approximately 0.2 cm.In addition parallel lines of shell wear on the anterior view were observed.The evaluation determined that the cause of the deflation 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 (lot-6881308).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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
