On november 26, 2024, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the sm mpps dv 600cc breast implant had a crease/fold on the anterior view. leak testing was performed, according to mentor procedure, and it identified a tear within the crease/fold measuring approximately 0.2 cm.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture was consistent with normal wear.Deflation can occur at any time after implantation, but it is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.Creating wrinkles or folds should be avoided during implantation or other procedures as it can result in deflation at a later time.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time. 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).
