Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On may 03, 2022, mentor completed a device evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured.In addition, an area of shell abrasion was observed on the edges of the tear.The evaluation determined that the cause of the rupture is consistent with normal wear.Shell abrasion suggests in-vivo folding or creasing of the device.This may be the result of the following factors: continuous and sustained stresses to the device such as too small breast pocket and folding or wrinkling of the shell in the breast pocket.In some cases, the breast implants may also wear out over time.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
