Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a (b)(6) year-old female who underwent primary breast augmentation with a 630cc mentor memorygel breast implant experienced left sided baker grade iii capsular contracture post procedure.The capsular contracture was diagnosed through a physical examination.As a result, replacement with mentor gel was performed on (b)(6) 2022.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on (b)(6) 2021.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.During the visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the returned device.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.Implant displacement/migration may occur from improper implant sizing and/or placement, i.E., when the implant is too large or the pocket too small or when there has been inadequate preoperative assessment of stresses causing movement of the prosthesis.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation on december 3, 2022.The analysis has begun but is not complete at this time.When the investigational analysis has been completed, a supplemental report will be submitted.Additional information was received on december 21, 2021.In addition to the capsular contracture reported initially, the patient also experienced device migration.The implant was medially displaced.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
