Additional Manufacturer Narrative
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 gel siltex 325cc breast implant was found to have an area of delamination at the union between the patch and shell, causing gel leakage.Although potential causes of patch delamination are unknown, stresses and forces on the implant in-vivo or exposure to betadine at insertion could result in delamination and ruptures.Per the current product insert data sheet (pids), rupture is a known complication associated with these devices and can occur at any time during or after implantation.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
