Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On july 24, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.On july 29, 2024, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the smooth uhp 750cc breast implant was ruptured.Microscopic examination was performed on the edges of the rupture, and parallel striations were found in an area of the tear on the posterior aspect, measuring approximately less than 0.1 cm.Parallel striations are consistent with markings made by a sharp object perforating the implant shell.The cause of the rupture in the remaining area of the tear could not be identified.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device lot number, and no non-conformances were identified.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, capsule, and effusion to pathology for examination.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.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
