Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On april 3, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On april 7, 2024, the product investigation was completed.A manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was performed, and no anomalies were found related to this complaint.In addition, the mre verifies that the device was manufactured in accordance with documented specification and procedures.Device investigation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the sx mod classic gel, 340cc breast implant had a tear measuring approximately 1.2 cm on the posterior view.Additionally an area of siltex cracking was observed on the edges of the tear.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture is 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.A second product was received (lot-6812872).No adverse events were reported for this concomitant (contralateral) device, therefore no further analysis is required.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.
