Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On august 9, 2023, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On august 14, 2023, device evaluation was completed.Device evaluation summary: mentor conducted visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the sal siltex rnd diap pkg 475cc breast implant had an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view.In addition, a tear was noted within the siltex cracking measuring approximately 0.3 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.Some breast ptosis is a normal component of the mature breast.Ptosis becomes undesirable when the breast parenchyma predominates below the areola, droops considerably below the inframammary fold and the nipple points downward.Augmentation alone, without consideration of the ptosis can produce a less than desirable cosmetic result known as a "rock in sock" deformity or an increased ptotic appearance.Ptosis 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.Capa activity was not required.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.This supplemental medwatch report is for the patient¿s right-sided device.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
