Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient underwent a primary breast revision surgery with implantation of a 685cc mentor memorygel boost breast implant prosthesis.Post-operatively, the patient was diagnosed with left breast baker grade iii-iv capsular contracture during an in-office visit with a medical professional as she had a stiff and elevated left breast that appeared smaller than the right breast.During a secondary follow-up, she was noted to have right breast implant bottoming out and she was diagnosed with right breast implant malposition.As a result, the patient underwent bilateral removal and replacement with 740cc mentor memorygel boost breast implants on (b)(6) 2024.This report is for the right breast prosthesis.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On january 27, 2025, the mentor analysis lab received the suspect medical device for evaluation.On february 13, 2025, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the device.During visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the breast implant device.Implant displacement/migration may occur from improper implant sizing and/or placement, i.E., when the implant is too large or the pocket too small or when there has been inadequate preoperative assessment of stresses causing movement of the prosthesis.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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
