Device evaluation: visual analysis of the returned device identified: one opening curved on the stable base-shell and device appearance (the device has a black circle in anterior side).Leak test and microscopic analysis was performed which identified: two openings striated on the anterior and one opening sharp on the stable base-shell.A dimension measurement in the shell was performed which identified the thickness within specification.Based on the device analysis the final assessment is: a sharp opening due to an unidentified (tear) opening.Two striated openings due to surgical damage consist in the use of some surgical tool.
