Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient implanted with two 475cc mentor memoryshape breast implants experienced bilateral capsular contracture (baker grade 2) and a rupture on the left side post-operatively.As a result, the patient underwent explantation on (b)(6) 2023.This report is for the left side device.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On (b)(6) 2023, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On (b)(6) 2023, mentor completed evaluation of the device.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the mentor memoryshape¿ mm+ 420cc breast implant was found to be ruptured and received in two (2) parts.Additionally, siltex cracking was observed on the edges of the rupture.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture was 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.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.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.No corrective and preventive action (capa) is required now.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
