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.Device evaluation summary: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted visual inspection and leak testing of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant was found to have some bubbles within the gel.Leak testing was performed, in accordance with mentor procedures, and no areas of gel exposure were detected during the analysis.The shell wall of the implant is permeable to air, and trapped air can form bubbles with changes in pressure or temperature.When left by themselves with no changes in temperature or pressure, bubbles usually dissipate over time unless trapped by cured gel.Regarding the reported capsular contracture condition, there are not enough details to determine the factors that may have caused this condition.Capsular contracture in the patient¿s breast might be the result of the body¿s individual physiological response to the implantation of a foreign object in soft tissue.Further, capsular contracture 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: no corrective and preventive action (capa) is required now.Reason for device explant and/or reoperation: capsular contracture.Mentor is submitting this report pursuant to the provisions of 21 cfr, part 803.This report may be based on information which mentor has not been able to investigate or verify prior to the required reporting date.This report does not reflect a conclusion by fda, mentor, or its employees that the report constitutes an admission that the device, mentor, or its employees caused or contributed to the potential event described in this report.If certain information is unknown, not available or does not apply, the section/field of the form is left blank.Manufacturer's reference number: (b)(4).
