Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On october 16, 2023, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On october 19, 2023, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.During the visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the smooth uhp 185cc returned device.Mentor concluded that the capsular contracture in the patient´s breast was the result of the body´s individual physiological response to the implantation of a foreign object in soft tissue.Capsular contracture is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.The american society of plastic surgeons recommends and encourages member surgeons to always submit breast implants, capsules, and effusion to pathology for examination.It should be noted that as part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Since no malfunction was observed during the investigation, capa activity was not required.
