Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a 51-year-old female patient underwent a primary breast augmentation with a 270cc mentor smooth round high profile saline breast prosthesis and experienced a deflation on the left side post-operatively, which was diagnosed with a physical exam.As a result, the patient is to undergo device explantation on (b)(6), 2026.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On april 27, 2026, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.On may 04, 2026, the evaluation for the device was completed.Device evaluation summary: visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the breast implant had a crease/fold on the anterior view.Leak testing was performed, according to mentor procedure, and it identified a tear within the crease/fold measuring approximately 0.4 cm.No more leak sites were observed.The evaluation determined that the possible cause of the rupture is consistent with normal wear.Deflation can occur at any time after implantation, but it is more likely to occur the longer the implant is implanted.Creating wrinkles or folds should be avoided during implantation or other procedures as it can result in a deflation in a later time.Breast implants may also simply wear out 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.Additional complaint information monitoring for potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending as part of post market surveillance.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
