Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On january 12, 2023, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.On january 29, 2023, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: during the visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the sal siltex rnd diap pkg 475cc returned device.Leak testing was performed, according with mentor procedure, and it revealed a tear within an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view, measuring approximately 0.4 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.Most women undergoing augmentation or reconstruction with a mammary prosthesis will experience some pain postoperatively.While pain normally subsides in most women as they heal from surgery, it can become a chronic problem in other women.Chronic pain can be associated with a variety of factors.Surgeons should instruct their patients to inform them if there is significant pain or if the pain persists.Pain is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.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).
