Primary Breast Augmentation, Primary Breast Reconstruction, Revision Breast Augmentation, Revision Breast Reconstruction
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to collect additional post-approval clinical data on the long-term performance of MemoryShape and MemoryGel Breast Implants, as indicated for primary or revisional breast augmentation and primary or revisional breast reconstruction.
Detailed description
The post-approval study will include a maximum of 3500 women undergoing breast augmentation or reconstruction with MemoryShape or MemoryGel Breast Implants. Four cohorts will be included: primary augmentation, revision-augmentation, primary reconstruction, and revision-reconstruction. For the purpose of assessing rheumatological and neurological signs and symptoms, a control group with 300-480 women will be selected from the participating investigators' practices, who are undergoing an aesthetic surgery other than breast implant surgery. Breast implant patients and the concurrent control group patients will be followed for 10 years. Baseline and operative data will be collected at the beginning of the study, and follow-up data will be collected annually for 10 years through online questionnaires.
Interventions
MENTOR® MemoryShape™ Breast Implants are devices with shells constructed from medical grade silicone elastomer. The shell is filled with Mentor's proprietary formulation of medical grade silicone gel. The textured shell is constructed of successive crosslinked layers of silicone elastomer, and includes raised orientation marks on the anterior and posterior of the implant intended to help the physician orient the implant and ensure proper placement during implantation. Each MENTOR® MemoryShape™ Breast Implant is provided sterile. MemoryShape Breast Implants are available in sizes ranging from 120 cc-775 cc and 5 styles with various projection and height options.
MENTOR® MemoryGel™ Breast Implants are round devices with shells constructed from medical grade silicone elastomer. The shell is filled with MemoryGel™, Mentor's proprietary formulation of medical grade silicone gel, and is constructed of successive cross-linked layers of silicone elastomer. There are two styles of shell: smooth and textured. Each MENTOR® MemoryGel™ Breast Implant is provided sterile. MemoryGel Breast Implants are available in sizes ranging from 100 cc-800 cc and 4 styles with various projection and height options.
Other aesthetic surgery procedures (for example, liposuction, rhinoplasty, brow lift, rhytidectomy, mentoplasty/genioplasty, otoplasty, or blepharoplasty; may not include silicone implants)
