Additional Manufacturer Narrative
On 10-mar-2020, mentor completed the investigation on the suspect medical device.Device evaluation summary: according to the information received, the patient experienced a deflation on the breast implant.During visual inspection of the sample, an area of siltex cracking was observed on the posterior view.Additionally, a tear measuring approximately 1 cm was noted within the siltex cracking area.The evaluation determined that the rupture is consistent with the siltex cracking.Siltex cracking is defined as a material separation occurring in the siltex layer and can eventually progress through the shell of siltex devices resulting in a tear at a later date.The manufacturing records were reviewed, and the manufacturing criteria were met prior to the release of this lot.Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices.Deflation is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our product insert data sheet.It should be noted that as part of our quality process, each device is visually inspected during manufacturing to ensure the device meets the required specifications prior to shipment.Complaint information will be included in complaint trending that is reviewed and monitor by quality assurance on a regular basis to determine if further action is necessary.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
