Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a (b)(6) female who underwent breast augmentation with a mentor siltex round spectrum 375cc saline prosthesis experienced spontaneous left sided deflation post procedure.The device appeared completely flattened.The deflation was diagnosed through a physical examination.As a result, an explant was performed on (b)(6) 2022.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Since the device has not been returned for analysis, no product failure analysis can be conducted, and no determination of possible contributing factors can be made.As such, the investigation will be closed.If the complaint device is received in the future, the investigation will be reopened and conducted as appropriate.A manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was performed, and no anomalies were found related to this complaint.In addition, the mre verifies that the device was manufactured in accordance with documented specification and procedures.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: deflation.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information was received on march 23, 2022.The procedure was a breast augmentation revision.Replacement with an unspecified saline implant was performed with explant.The mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation on april 5, 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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on april 26, 2022.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation the tubing, the connector, and the injection dome were not returned.Mentor conducted a visual inspection and leak testing 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.Leak testing was performed according to the mentor procedures, and it revealed a tear within the siltex cracking measuring approximately 0.6 cm.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.It should be noted that as part of the 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).
