Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On july 15, 2024, the mentor analysis lab received the suspect medical device for evaluation.D4: udi: as several of the device characteristics are unknown at this time, the udi is currently unavailable.On july 18, 2024, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted visual inspection of the device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured.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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
