Event or Problem Description

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On october 30, 2024, mentor received additional information indicating that the patient was also diagnosed with an extremely contracted right breast pocket, during the explantation surgery.The patient's implants were replaced bilaterally with the following devices: (right) 175cc mentor smooth round moderate profile catalog: 3501620, lot: 9983398, sn: (b)(6) and (left) 175cc mentor smooth round moderate profile catalog: 3501620, lot: 9983398, sn: (b)(6).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On november 26, 2024, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On november 27, 2024, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection and microscopic examination of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the sal smooth rnd diap 175cc breast implant was found to have a tear on the posterior view measuring approximately 0.2 cm.In addition, a crease/fold was observed on the edges of the tear.A microscopic examination was performed and no instrument damage was observed at the edges of the tear.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.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.
