On january 25, 2024, mentor received the device for evaluation as well as additional information.The patient was implanted with her prosthesis during a breast augmentation revision surgery.The patient's deflation occurred in her left prosthesis and was diagnosed using ultrasonography.The patient underwent removal and replacement with a 275cc mentor memorygel breast implant on (b)(6) 2023.Patient identifier was added.On january 30, 2024, mentor completed a visual inspection and microscopic examination of the returned device.Device evaluation summary: visual analysis of the returned sample determined that a tear was found on the anterior view of the breast implant, measuring approximately 1.3 cm.Microscopic examination was performed on the edges of the rupture, and parallel striations were found in the whole area of the tear.Parallel striations are consistent with markings made by a sharp object perforating the implant shell.Based on the information currently available, a microscopic examination of the returned product indicates that the implant could have been damaged during or subsequent to implantation.The product insert data sheet cautions to not allow cautery devices or sharp instruments, such as scalpels, suture needles, hypodermic needles, hemostats, adson forceps, or scissors to contact the device during the implantation or other surgical procedures.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
