PERTHESE® T

Cohesive Silicone Gel-filled Breast Implant

Tri-laminated Smooth surface
 



SAFETY
  • The PERTHESE® breast implant is a sterile gel-filled implant made with a trilaminar silicone envelope. The silicone envelope consists of an internal and external layer made with a high mechanical resistance medical grade silicone elastomer and an intermediate barrier layer to significantly reduce gel bleed. The envelope is filled with a soft transparent silicone gel, very close to the normal breast consistency. The elongation of the shell is greater than 500%. These implants form an extremely soft and resilient structure, limiting gel migration to a minimum.
  • The PERTHESE® mammary prostheses is manufactured and packaged under the ISO9001/EN 46001 quality standards applicable to medical devices. Quality controls are performed at all stages of the production.
  • Each implant carries the manufacturer's identification, the serial number and the volume (in cc) engraved on the patch.
  • The PERTHESE® breast implant is provided sterile within a rigid double blister package in order to ensure security and convenience. The prosthesis is sterilized by ethylene oxide.
  • The base of PERTHESE® AX anatomic mammary implants has five positioning blocks helping to hand-position in the space.

INDICATIONS – CONTRAINDICATIONS

  • Contour reconstruction and size augmentation following a subcutaneous mastectomy for benign disease as for example chronic cystic mastitis, or for augmentation or reconstruction for correction of defects following radical mastectomy procedures.
  • Unilateral or bilateral mammary augmentation or reconstruction to surgically correct various congenital or acquired anomalies such as amastia, aplasia, hypomastia, hypoplasia or for cosmetic purposes.

It is the surgeon’s sole responsibility to determine criteria for the patient selection
PERTHESE® mammary prostheses should not be implanted in patients with:

  • a general or localized infection of the mammary sphere
  • a history of auto-immune disease
  • an ongoing pregnancy
         

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Precautions for use should be considered by the surgeon prior to the use of a PERTHESE® mammary prosthesis:
  • No evaluating breast cancer at the time of implantation, even if a breast reconstruction can be considered in the case of a controlled metastatic syndrome, the prerequisite being to well balance the benefits to the patient with the consequences of the surgical procedure and its non-interference with the required carcinologic treatments.
  • If the patient exhibits a lack of skin it is the sole responsibility of the surgeon to decide the use of an expansion technique or a tissue graft.
  • Patient is not willing to accept the possibility of multiple surgeries for revision, which could be related to a lack of understanding, or inappropriate motivation, or to a history of repeated failures following cosmetic augmentations or subcutaneous mastectomy.
  • On a general point of view, the health condition of the patient should be considered in view of the type of surgical procedure and the required anesthesia. Each patient must be evaluated by the surgeon to balance the risk/benefit to the patient.
