Allergan did not submit this mdr within 30 days of becoming aware.Recent stimulated reporting related to 2011068-7/2/19-001-r has increased complaint and mdr volume.Allergan is implementing a plan to address the increased volumes.A review of the device history record has been completed.No deviations or non-conformances noted.Device evaluation: visual analysis of the returned device identified: deformation, yellow particles.And was observed after autoclave cycle: air voids between shell and gel and cloudy gel.A weight test of the explanted material was verified and it was within specification.Based on the device analysis the final assessment is: no issues found related with the manufacturing process.And no observations found related with the complaint reported by the physician.The event of "capsular contracture" is a physiological complication and analysis of the device generally does not assist allergan in determining a probable cause for this event.Reason for reoperation: capsular contracture, breast pain, and voluntary market withdrawal.This is a known potential adverse event addressed in the product labeling.
