Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a (b)(6) year-old caucasian female who underwent primary breast augmentation with 600cc mentor memorygel breast implants experienced bilateral rupture and bilateral capsular contracture post procedure.The left sided capsular contracture was baker grade iii and the right sided capsular contracture was baker grade ii.The ruptures were discovered through magnetic resonance imaging.As a result, bilateral prosthesis replacement was performed on (b)(6) 2021.See 1645337-2021-12067 for contralateral prosthesis report.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on november 15, 2021.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection and leak testing of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant had some lines of shell wear on the anterior view.Leak testing was performed, in accordance with mentor procedures, and no leak sites were detected during the analysis.Although no conclusion could be reached on the cause of the reported event, the instructions for use contain the following caution: rupture status identified by mri evaluation includes both suspected ruptures, which are those ruptures identified by mri but not confirmed by explantation and examination of the device, and confirmed ruptures, which are those ruptures that are confirmed by evaluation of the explanted devices.The event described could not be confirmed as the breast implant was returned without detectable leakage.Although no rupture was identified, there may have been other circumstances or issues that occurred during the use of the device that could not be replicated during the laboratory analysis.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, capsule, and effusion to pathology for examination.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
