Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Device evaluation summary: upon receipt by mentor, the device contained no fluid.White, yellow, and brown material were observed within the device.White and yellow material were observed on the shell surface.During visual examination of the device, mentor product analysis lab observed a rent extending to both views and measuring approximately 0.5 cm.Microscopic examination of the rent edges gave no indication as to its cause.No other anomalies were found.Mentor products are 100% visually inspected prior to release in addition to thorough in-process testing during several stages of the manufacturing process.Mentor product analysis lab 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.Nonetheless, a microscopic examination of the rent edges was performed, and it did not provide conclusive evidence of what could be the root cause.At this point it is not possible to determine the origin of the white, yellow, and brown material observed.There is no evidence that the issue is related with manufacturing.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).
