Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a 59-year-old caucasian female patient who underwent a breast augmentation primary with a mentor memorygel, 300cc silicone implant experienced left-sided silent rupture, and bilateral ptosis postoperative.The rupture was discovered during mammogram examination.As a result, patient underwent partial capsulectomy of the right side, bilateral mastopexy, and bilateral replacement with unspecified mentor silicone prosthesis on (b)(6) 2023.This report relates to the right side.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Suspect device received on sep 12, 2023 device evaluation completed on sep 21 , 2023: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.During visual evaluation no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the siltex hpg, 325cc returned device.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.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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
