Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a female patient underwent a breast augmentation revision with a 240cc mentor memorygel xtra breast implant and experienced a local reaction on the right side post-operatively.The patient had experienced inflammation/irritation/swelling.As a result, the patient underwent explantation on (b)(6) 2025 and replaced with a 240cc mentor memorygel xtra breast implant (catalog number smpx240).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On may 25, 2025, a photo evaluation for the device was completed.Photo evaluation summary: upon visual evaluation of the image provided in the complaint no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed.As the product involved in this complaint was not received, the device could not be analyzed according to our procedures.Swelling is a temporary normal post-operative condition.Depending on presentation, delayed swelling may require additional work-up by the surgeon.Swelling is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.Inflammation is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.The function of inflammation is to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury, clear out necrotic cells and tissues damaged from the original insult and the inflammatory process, and to initiate tissue repair.The classical signs of inflammation are heat, pain, redness, swelling, and loss of function.Most women undergoing augmentation or reconstruction with a mammary prosthesis will experience some breast and/or chest inflammation postoperative.While inflammation normally subsides in most women as they heal from surgery, it can become a chronic problem in other women.Inflammation is a known complication associated with this type of procedure and is referenced in the current ifu.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).
