Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On august 28, 2023, mentor was notified that the patient explantation surgery was updated to november 02, 2023.Date of explantation: november 02, 2023.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On november 16, 2023, the mentor analysis lab received the suspect medical device for evaluation.On november 21, 2023, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted a visual inspection.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured.As the authorization form for examination was not received the product evaluation lab couldn´t identify a conclusion due to the specific nature of this rupture.The evaluation was limited to non-destructive testing.Although no conclusion could be reached on the cause of the reported event, the instructions for use contain the following caution: rupture can occur at any time after implantation, but it is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.The following things may cause the implant to rupture: damage by surgical instruments; stressing the implant during implantation and weakening it; folding or wrinkling of the implant shell; excessive force to the chest (e.G.During closed capsulotomy); trauma; compression during mammographic imaging; and severe capsular contracture.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time.At the present time, there is no sufficient evidence to show an association between breast implants and generalized illness (assessing the risks of breast implants and fda¿s vision for the national breast implant registry).Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
