Intended Use
The Mentor™ CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Smooth Breast Tissue Expander with fill volume to 1445cc can be used for breast reconstruction after mastectomy, correction of an underdeveloped breast, scar revision and tissue defect procedures. The devices are intended for temporary subcutaneous or submuscular implantation and are not intended for use beyond six months.
Device Story
Inflatable silicone elastomer breast tissue expander; used for breast reconstruction, scar revision, or tissue defect correction. Device implanted subcutaneously or submuscularly by surgeons; temporary use (max 6 months). Input: sterile Sodium Chloride U.S.P. solution injected into integral injection dome.

### III. PREDICATE DEVICE
## Primary Predicate
K152496, Mentor™ CPX™4 Breast Tissue Expander with fill volumes up to 1445cc This predicate has not been subjected to a design-related recall.
## Additional Predicate
K182335, Mentor™ CPX™ 4 Breast Tissue Expander with Smooth Surface This predicate has not been subjected to a design-related recall.
#### IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The MENTOR™ CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander is used for breast reconstruction following mastectomy and is intended for temporary subcutaneous or submuscular implantation and is not intended for use beyond six months. The proposed device consists of a smooth surface shell made with successive cross-linked layers of silicone elastomer. Superior and anterior reinforcement
{5}------------------------------------------------
allows for directional expansion in the lower pole of the device has an integral, silicone elastomer, magnetically detected, injection dome and incorporates a BUFFERZONE™ area with selfsealing technology (containing silicone gel) to the front patch of the device to minimize and/or prevent leakage in the event of an accidental needle puncture. The CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander Injection Dome houses a rare-earth, permanent magnet, This internal magnet, when in conjunction with the CENTERSCOPE™ Magnetic Injection Port Locator accessory, helps the injector accurately identify the injection dome during patient tissue expander fill procedures.
Identification of the injection dome site can be accomplished by use of the CENTERSCOPE™ Magnetic Injection Port Locator provided with the Tissue Expander. Instructions for use of the CENTERSCOPE™ Magnetic Injection Port Locator are provided within this document. Injections must be made using sterile, pyrogen-free Sodium Chloride U.S.P. Solution and into the injection dome area. If injections are made on or outside the injection dome, leakage can occur.
The MENTOR™ CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Smooth Breast Tissue Expander gives surgeons the option to attach the device to surrounding tissue to enhance device stability. Surgeons can suture on any part of the tab surface or the suturing hole can be used for added convenience.
The MENTOR™ CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Smooth Breast Tissue Expander, Catalogue Number SCPX-15TH-E, provides fill volume options from 930 cc to 1445 cc.
The following accessories are packaged with the CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander:
- Centerscope Magnetic Injection Port Finder .
- Winged Infusion Set .
#### V. INDICATIONS FOR USE
The MENTOR™ CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Smooth Breast Tissue Expander with fill volume to 1445cc can be used for breast reconstruction after mastectomy, correction of an underdeveloped breast, scar revision and tissue defect procedures. The devices are intended for temporary subcutaneous or submuscular implantation and are not intended for use beyond six months.
### VI. COMPARISON OF TECHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH PREDICATE
The proposed device has the same scientific technology, principles of operation, Intended Use, and Indications for Use as the cleared predicate device, MENTOR™ CPX™4 Breast Tissue Expanders with fill volumes up to 1445cc (K152496) and MENTOR™ CPX™4 Tissue Expander with Smooth Surface (K182335).
The technological principle for both the proposed and predicate devices is the same. Both devices' expansion are based on incremental filling of a silicone shell with saline fluid to stretch the surrounding tissue. Filling is achieved via an integral injection dome with needle guard, and a magnetic injection finder to locate the dome. The proposed device has the same scientific technology,
{6}------------------------------------------------
principles of operation, Intended Use, and Indications for Use as the cleared predicate device, CPXTM4 Breast Tissue Expander with fill volumes to 1445cc (K152496).
This special 510(k) pre-market notification describe a change to the surface of the tissue expander (from textured to smooth) and the addition of three suture tabs for a total of six suture tabs like the CPX™4 Smooth Tissue Expander cleared via K182335. The MENTOR™ CPX ™ 4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander is provided sterile and deflated. The predicate MENTOR™ CPX TM4 Textured Surface device (K152496) is provided in Tall Height Style with fill volume up to 1445cc like the proposed device. All other components, device features and specifications remain unchanged.
### VII. PERFORMANCE DATA Biocompatibility Testing:
The MENTOR™ CPX ™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander with fill volume to 1445cc is an implantable device; the contact category according to ISO 10993-1:2018 is: Implant, tissue contacting, permanent (> 30 days). All materials used in the proposed CPX ™ 4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander are identical to the materials used in the predicate device. All patient contact materials are identical to the predicate device. No changes associated with the proposed device warrant new biocompatibility testing.
## Mechanical Testing:
Mechanical testing was conducted on the modified device in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence with the predicate device. This testing was performed as required by the risk analysis and in accordance with design control procedures. The testing performed evaluated parameters related to overexpansion and bladder leak testing in accordance ASTM F1441-03, Standard Specification for Soft-Tissue Expanders. Since the proposed CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expanders with Smooth Surface will have a smooth outer surface, the connection of the external components relative to the shell surface will change. Specifically, the Base and Injection Dome components will be attached to the smooth surface (not the textured surface) of the shell.
All mechanical performance testing results met their pre-determined acceptance criteria, thus demonstrating that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
#### VIII. CONCLUSION
The proposed CPX™4 PLUS Enhance Breast Tissue Expander with fill volumes from 930 cc to 1445 cc has the same indications for use, operating principle and technological characteristics as the predicate devices. Performance evaluations demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, CPX™4 Breast Tissue Expander with fill volume to 1445cc, (K152496).
