Additional Manufacturer Narrative
D4: udi: as the serial number for the device involved in the event was not provided, the full udi is currently not available.On november 14, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.Per the returned device, mentor became aware that the suspect medical devices are: (right) 495cc mentor memoryshape breast implant catalog: 3341302 lot: 6922540 and (left) 495cc mentor memoryshape breast implant catalog: 3341302 lot: 6987826.A manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was performed for the complaint device.As a result, the manufacturing date and expiration date fields have been updated.The manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was reviewed, 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.On november 20, 2024, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation 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 mentor memoryshape¿ mh 495cc breast implant was found to be ruptured.Additionally, an area of silex cracking was observed on the edges of the rupture.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture was 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.Asymmetry may be attributed to one or more of the following: contracture of the fibrous capsule, seroma or hematoma, development of postoperative breast dysplasia, unilateral discrepancy in muscle development, deflation of the implant, incorrect choice of implant shape or size, and surgical technique.Asymmetry is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.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.
