Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a 57-year-old black female patient underwent a breast augmentation revision with two 430cc mentor memorygel breast implants and experienced capsular contracture (baker grade 4) on the right side and breast ptosis on the left side post-operatively.As a result, the patient underwent explantation on (b)(6) 2025 and replaced with 430cc mentor memorygel breast implants (catalog number 3505430bc).This report is for the left side device.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On april 03, 2025, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: during visual evaluation, no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the smooth uhp 430cc returned device.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.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: since no malfunction was observed during the investigation.No corrective and preventive action (capa) is required now.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals is conducted through complaint trending as part of post-market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
