Additional, changed, and/or corrected data: b5, d1, d4, d.9, h.3, h4, h.6.A review of the device history record has been completed.No deviations or non-conformances noted.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 broken device through microscopic inspection assessed as fold flaw opening.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.- use error : observed per implant date reported.None of the other observations performed during the device analysis creases, non penetrating nick and wear abrasion are found to be potentially related to the manufacturing process, and, therefore, no further actions are required for these observations.
