Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The impacted product was received by the failure analysis lab on december 16, 2024.The explant date was clarified with receipt of the device.Explant was performed on (b)(6) 2024.The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on december 26, 2024.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection, microscopic examination, and thickness measurement of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured and received in three parts.A microscopic examination was performed, and the cause of the tear could not be identified.Therefore, a thickness measurement was conducted on the shell at the tear, and the thickness was within manufacturing specifications.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.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals is conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
