Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned photograph was completed by the failure analysis lab on december 7, 2022.Device evaluation 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 breast implant had an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view.In addition, a tear was found within the siltex cracking measuring approximately 2.0 cm.The evaluation determined that the cause of the rupture 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.It should be noted that as part of mentor¿s quality process all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
