Since the device has not been returned for analysis, no product failure analysis can be conducted, and no determination of possible contributing factors can be made.  as such, the investigation will be closed.  if the complaint device is received in the future, the investigation will be reopened and conducted as appropriate.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.Mentor is submitting this report pursuant to the provisions of 21 cfr, part 803.  this report may be based on information which mentor has not been able to investigate or verify prior to the required reporting date.  this report does not reflect a conclusion by fda, mentor, or its employees that the report constitutes an admission that the device, mentor, or its employees caused or contributed to the potential event described in this report.  if certain information is unknown, not available or does not apply, the section/field of the form is left blank.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: rupture date of explantation: (b)(6) 2024 manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On may 28, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.The analysis has begun but is not complete at this time.  when the investigational analysis has been completed, a supplemental report will be submitted.On june 10, 2024, mentor received the following additional information: the patient was also diagnosed with bilateral baker grade ii capsular contracture of the breasts during an in-office visit with a medical professional.As a result, the patient underwent bilateral replacement with 290cc mentor memorygel boost breast implants during the removal surgery.As an event for the contralateral side was indicated, another file was generated to document the event.This report is for the left breast prosthesis.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: capsular contracture.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On june 25, 2024, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted a visual inspection and microscopic examination of the device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured.A microscopic examination was performed, and the cause of the rupture could not be identified.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.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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
