Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On july 22, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On july 24, 2024, mentor received additional information indicating that the patient's implants were replaced with the following devices: (left) 545cc mentor memorygel boost breast implant catalog: smhb545 lot: 9989717 sn: (b)(6) and (right) 545cc mentor memorygel boost breast implant catalog: smhb545 lot: 9989717 sn: (b)(6).In addition, during the removal surgery, the left implant was confirmed to be ruptured and the right to be intact.However, the product investigation results for the right implant identified a tear.On july 26, 2024, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted visual inspection and leak testing of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the mentor memoryshape¿ tm+ 495cc breast implant had an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view.Leak testing was performed, according with mentor procedure, and it revealed a tear within the siltex cracking, measuring approximately 0.2 cm.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.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.
