Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on (b)(6) 2022.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor then conducted a visual inspection and microscopic examination of the returned device.During the visual evaluation, only the patch was returned for evaluation of the breast implant.Microscopic examination was performed on the edges of the rupture, and parallel striations were found in the whole area of the tear.Parallel striations are consistent with markings made by a sharp object perforating the implant shell.Based on the information currently available, microscopic examination of the returned product indicates that the implant could have been damaged during or subsequent to implantation.The product insert data sheet cautions to not allow cautery devices or sharp instruments, such as scalpels, suture needles, hypodermic needles, hemostats, adson forceps, or scissors to contact the device during the implantation or other surgical procedures.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 is conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
