Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor then conducted a visual inspection, leak testing, and microscopic examination of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that no damage or anomalies were observed on the sal siltex rnd diap pkg 375cc breast implant.Leak testing was performed, in accordance with mentor procedures, and a tear was noted on the posterior view measuring approximately 0.3 cm.Microscopic examination was performed and the cause of the deflation could not be identified.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device lot number, and no non-conformances were identified.Although no conclusion could be reached on the cause of the reported event, the instructions for use contain the following caution: causes of deflation of saline implants include but are not limited to the following events: crease fold failure, intraoperative or postoperative trauma, excessive stresses or manipulations as may occur during normal, daily routines including customary and purposeful trauma such as that which can occur during vigorous exercise, athletics, etc.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.Infection, manifested by swelling, tenderness, pain and fever, may appear in the immediate postoperative period or at any time after insertion of the implant.In the absence of classic symptoms, subacute or chronic infections may be difficult to diagnose.If infection does not subside promptly with the appropriate treatment, removal of the implant is indicated.Infection is a known complication associated with any surgery.Per a database query, this is the only reported complaint of infection against this lot number.The mentor microbiology department has provided information on the sterility lot for the implanted device indicating that it met all sterilization parameters required to provide a 10e-6 sterility assurance level prior to release for distribution.Product evaluation concluded the reported infection occurred from a source other than the device.Infection is a known complication associated with any surgery and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
