Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient underwent a primary breast reconstruction procedure with a mentor smooth round spectrum 375cc saline breast prosthesis that deflated post implantation.Deflation of the patient¿s left breast prosthesis was diagnosed via a physical exam.As a result, the patient underwent bilateral explantation and replacement with a mentor memorygel boost breast implant 375cc gel breast prosthesis and a mentor memorygel boost breast implant 480cc gel breast prosthesis on (b)(6) 2024.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On 17-dec-2024, the mentor failure analysis lab received the device for evaluation.On 20-dec-2024, mentor completed the investigation on the suspect medical device.Device evaluation summary: according to the information received, the patient experienced deflation in the breast implant.The product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned sample revealed that the breast implant had a crease/fold on the posterior view.In addition, a tear was found within the crease/fold, measuring approximately 0.5 cm.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture is 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 a deflation in a later time.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time.A second product was received (lot #5661855).No adverse events were reported for this concomitant (contralateral) device.Therefore, no further analysis is required.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).
