Narrative: the reported lot number was valid.
The serious events of mass and reaction at the implant site, and the non-serious events of swelling and pain at the implant site and intentional device misuse were considered expected and possibly related to the treatment.
Serious criteria included the need for surgical lumpectomy and multiple medical interventions with steroid, hyaluronidase and antibiotic injections and oral antibiotics to prevent permanent damage.
The non-serious events of dryness and exfoliation at implant site were considered unexpected and possibly related to the treatment.
Potential etiologies include hypersensitivity, inflammatory reaction and infection.
Potential contributory factors include injection technique, interactions with previous implants and skin or dental changes associated with concomitant hormonal therapy.
The case meets the seriousness criteria for expedited reporting to the regulatory authorities.
