On february 10, 2026, the mentor analysis lab received the suspect medical device for evaluation.Additionally, the baker grade (bg) was provided as bg iii for the right capsular contracture.On february 17, 2026, mentor completed an evaluation on the returned device.Device evaluation: mentor conducted a visual inspection of the device.During visual evaluation no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed on the returned device.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.On february 18, 2026, mentor became aware that information was submitted in error in the first supplemental report regarding the exchange.Corrected data: the patient had undergone unilateral right-sided exchange.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
