Additional Manufacturer Narrative
D4: udi: as the serial number for the device involved in the event was not provided, the full udi is currently not available.On may 30, 2025, the mentor failure analysis lab received two devices for evaluation.The lot numbers were 5551902 and 5577807, however, it was not specified which breast they belonged to.For now, 200cc mentor memorygel breast implant catalog: 3507200bc lot: 5577807 was assigned to this medwatch.A manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was performed for the complaint device.As a result, the manufacturing date and expiration date fields have been updated.The manufacturing record evaluation (mre) was reviewed, and no anomalies were found related to this complaint.In addition, the mre verifies that the device was manufactured in accordance with documented specification and procedures.On june 5, 2025, the product investigation was completed.Device investigation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant was ruptured.Additionally, shell abrasion was observed on the edges of the rupture.These findings are consistent with normal wear of the device.Shell abrasion suggests in-vivo folding or creasing of the device, which may be caused by continuous and sustained stresses to the device, such as an excessively small breast pocket or the folding or wrinkling of the shell within the breast pocket.In some cases, breast implants may also experience normal wear over time.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 and that normal wear may have caused the observed defect.No corrective and preventive action (capa) is required now.
