Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The alleged event is a risk associated with breast surgery and there is no evidence to suggest a link between this particular implant and/or its manufacturing process and a higher risk of occurrence.Per our directions for use, each patient must receive the establishment labs s.A.¿motiva implants®: information for the patient¿ during her surgical consultation, it is the surgeons´ responsibility to ensure that the patient completely understands the information regarding the risks, benefits, and recommendations associated with silicone gel-filled breast implant surgery, as well as the complications typical of any type of surgery.This document is available in motiva® website: ifu.Motiva.Health the instructions for use in the directions for use were reviewed, to determinate if there are indications that ensure the prevention and good handling of the product.For this event, it is considered that the information is suitable for the section of surgical precautions as follows: seroma: seroma is an accumulation of fluid that results from tissue inflammation.The etiology of seroma is known in breast surgery and is connected to a hypovascular milieu or trauma following the surgery.Often, seromas are reabsorbed by the body over several weeks, but needle drainage is sometimes needed to remove the fluid.While seromas do not increase breast cancer risk, they sometimes heal with scar tissue or calcifications that can raise a concern about mammograms in the future.Seroma symptoms most often appear a week to 10 days after surgery; the area may feel tender and swollen, with a discrete lump and redness arising within a day or two.Early seroma formation is defined as periprosthetic fluid accumulation within the first postoperative year, whereas the late form is any moment beyond that time.In addition to causing pain, a seroma increases the risk of developing an infection in the breast.Depending on the location, it may also increase pressure over the surgical site and sometimes cause wound dehiscence.Extrusion breast implant extrusion, or breast implant exposure, occurs when the breast skin and tissues that are holding the implant fail, causing the implant to protrude through the skin and become exposed.It happens in less than 2% of patients; it is shortly after breast augmentation or down the road.Breast-implant extrusion can occur for various reasons, such as improper wound healing due to an infection, trauma, too little soft-tissue coverage, oversized implant coupled with too little tissue coverage, or lack of blood supply.Breast-implant extrusion calls for surgery and removal of the implant.Literature: early seroma formation is defined as periprosthetic fluid accumulation within the first postoperative year, whereas the late form is any moment beyond that time (sforza, et al.2017).Extrusion represents potential complications associated with the use of breast implants, it involves the implant coming through the skin, normally through the incision where it¿s been placed.Extrusion can happen for several reasons, such as the skin over the implant thinned too much leaving too little coverage for the implant, the implant used is too large, the incision did not heal well and broke open.Implant exposure due to poor tissue coverage frequently obligates the surgeon to remove the breast implant and begin anew (gargano, ciminello & de santis; 2009).A complete review of the dhr for lot involved was carried out, no deviation was found in the manufacturing process.Additionally, there were no indications of abnormalities in raw materials or manufacturing processes which may have affected this particular batch.Establishment labs will continue to monitor for similar complaints/trends.As part of the post market surveillance process, monitoring of the primary endpoints reported is performed to determine unfavorable trends.Per our current complaint data report, no unfavorable trends were detected on this product.No further actions are required.
