A review of the device history record has been completed.No deviations or non-conformances noted.Additional, changed, and/or corrected data: d4, d.9, h.3, h4, h.6.Device evaluation: per the analysis performed, the assessments of the complaints and any potential manufacturing issue are displayed along with any further actions required: rupture: observed an opening through microscopic inspection assessed as assessed as fold flaw opening and observed a missing piece of shell through microscopic inspection assessed as inconclusive.No further actions are required as it is not related to the manufacturing process.Capsular contracture: unable to observe through visual inspection as it is a physiological phenomenon.None of the other observations performed during the device analysis (non-penetrating nick) are found to be potentially related to the manufacturing process, and, therefore, no further actions are required for these observations.
