Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On (b)(6) 2018, the mentor failure analysis lab has received the device for evaluation.The analysis has begun, but is not complete at this time.When the investigational analysis has been completed, a supplemental report will be submitted.Mentor also became aware that the patient also experienced deflation on the concomitant medical product: mentor siltex round moderate profile 125cc saline, catalog #3542610, lot #230331.(b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On 6/12/2018, the device history record (dhr) was reviewed, and no anomalies were found related to this complaint.In addition, the dhr review verifies that the device was manufactured in accordance with documented specification and procedures.(b)(4).
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Upon receipt by mentor, the device contained no fluid.No foreign material was observed within the device.Brown material was observed on the shell surface.During visual examination of the device, product evaluation observed a rent on the anterior view measuring 1.2 cm.Microscopic examination of the rent edges revealed parallel striations which are similar to markings made by a sharp instrument perforating silicone material.No other anomalies were found.Mentor performs 100% inspection and testing of all devices prior to release; product evaluation concluded that the rent occurred sometime subsequent to the removal of the device from its protective packaging.The complaint of deflation was confirmed since a rent was found on the device.Microscopic examination revealed parallel striations on the edges of the rent.This type of striations is more conclusive to sharp instrument damage rather than shell failure due to wear.At this point is it not possible to determine the origin of the brown material observed.Mentor performs 100% inspection and testing of all devices prior to release; product evaluation concluded that the rents occurred sometime subsequent to the removal of the device from its protective packaging.Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices and deflation is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our product insert data sheet.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
