The mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation on march 6, 2025.The analysis has begun but is not complete at this time.When the investigation and analysis have been completed, a supplemental report will be submitted.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The investigation of the returned device was completed by the failure analysis lab on april 9, 2025.Device evaluation: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant was ruptured.In addition, parallel lines of shell wear were observed at the edges of the rupture.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture is consistent with normal wear.Shell wear suggests in-vivo folding or creasing of the device.This may be the result of the following factors: continuous and sustained stresses to the device such as too small breast pocket and folding or wrinkling of the shell in the breast pocket.In some cases, the breast implants may also wear out over time.As part of mentor's quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released according to approved specifications.Based on the results of this investigation, it was determined that the product met the manufacturing release criteria, and that normal wear may have caused the observed defect.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).
