Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Suspect device received on february 09, 2026.Device evaluation completed on february 13, 2026: the product was returned to mentor for evaluation.Mentor conducted visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant was found to be ruptured from both aspects.Additionally, it had shell abrasion on the edge 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.The contralateral device was also received (lot number 6417762).The patient did not report any issue with this device.Therefore, no further analysis of the contralateral device is required.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.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
