Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Device evaluation summary: during visual inspection of the device no apparent damage could be observed.Hematoma is a collection of blood within the space around the implant.Symptoms from hematoma may include swelling, pain, and bruising.While the body absorbs small hematomas, some will require surgery.If a hematoma occurs, it will most likely occur soon after surgery; however, it can occur at any time.Careful hemostasis is important to prevent postoperative hematoma formation.Infection, manifested by swelling, tenderness, pain and fever, may appear in the immediate postoperative period or at any time after insertion of the implant.In the absence of classic symptoms, subacute or chronic infections may be difficult to diagnose.If infection does not subside promptly with the appropriate treatment, removal of the implant is indicated.Infection is a known complication associated with any surgery.The manufacturing records were reviewed and the manufacturing criteria were met prior to the release of this lot.The mentor microbiology department has provided information on the sterility lot for the implanted device indicating that it met all sterilization parameters required to provide sterility assurance prior to release for distribution.An investigation of the returned device was performed, and mentor could not uncover a device failure that we could connect to the reported medical symptoms.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
