Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On january 17, 2023, the mentor analysis lab received the suspect medical device for evaluation.On february 02, 2023, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted visual inspection of the device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant had a tear measuring approximately 0.7 cm on the posterior view.Additionally, an area of siltex cracking was observed on the edges of the tear.The evaluation determined that the cause of the rupture 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.A seroma is a build-up of fluid around the implant.Symptoms from a seroma may include swelling, pain, and bruising.A seroma may occur soon after surgery, or any time later on, which would be referred to as a late seroma.While the body may absorb seromas, some may require surgery for drainage.The american society of plastic surgeons recommends and encourages member surgeons to always submit breast implants, capsule, and effusion to pathology for examination.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
