Device evaluation: the device related to the reported events rupture and capsular contracture was received on august 26, 2026, with lot number 1748672.Per the investigation procedure, the device is analyzed through visual microscopic inspection if openings are observed and a weight verification.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 surgical damage 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 (crease and wear abrasion) are found to be potentially related to the manufacturing process, and, therefore, no further actions are required for these observations.Additional, changed, and/or corrected data: d.9., h.2., h.3., h.6.
