Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient underwent a breast augmentation revision surgery with implantation of a 280cc mentor memoryshape breast implant prosthesis.Post-operatively, the patient was diagnosed with a ruptured left breast implant by a medical professional.At the time of this report, mentor has received no information regarding explantation or an expected explantation date.Several follow-ups have been conducted, and no additional information has been received.If more information becomes available, mentor will submit a supplemental report accordingly.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On january 28, 2025, mentor received information to suggest the patient was scheduled for breast implant removal on (b)(6) 2025.Date of explantation: (b)(6) 2025.Since the device has not been returned for analysis, no product failure analysis can be conducted, and no determination of possible contributing factors can be made.As such, the investigation will be closed.If the complaint device is received in the future, the investigation will be reopened and conducted as appropriate.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: rupture.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On february 25, 2025, mentor received the following additional information: the rupture was diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging.Imaging also identified a trace amount of extracapsular fluid along the left implant.On february 27, 2025, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.The analysis has begun but is not complete at this time.When the investigational analysis has been completed, a supplemental report will be submitted.On march 06, 2025, mentor received information that indicated the patient was also diagnosed with bilateral breast ptosis and waterfall deformities.As an event for the contralateral side was indicated, another file was generated to document the event.This report is for the left breast prosthesis.H6 health effect - clinical code e2402: implant site fluid collection.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: anisomastia, implant site fluid collection.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On (b)(6) 2025, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Mentor conducted a visual inspection and microscopic examination of the device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured and received in two (2) parts.Microscopic examination was performed, and the cause of the tear could not be identified.Although no conclusion could be reached on the cause of the reported event, the instructions for use contain the following caution: rupture can occur at any time after implantation but is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.The following may cause implant to rupture: stressing the implant during implantation and weakening it; folding or wrinkling of the implant shell; excessive force to the chest (e.G.During closed capsulotomy); trauma; compression during mammographic imaging; and severe capsular contracture.Breast implants may also simply wear out over time.Some breast ptosis is a normal component of the mature breast.Ptosis becomes undesirable when the breast parenchyma predominates below the areola, droops considerably below the inframammary fold and the nipple points downward.Augmentation alone, without consideration of the ptosis can produce a less than desirable cosmetic result known as a "rock in sock" deformity or an increased ptotic appearance.Ptosis is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.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).
