Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The impacted product was received by the failure analysis lab on october 18, 2024.The explant date was clarified with receipt of the device.The explant was performed on (b)(6) 2024.The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on october 23, 2024.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant had a tear within an area of siltex cracking on the posterior view measuring approximately 0.5 cm.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the deflation 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.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).
