Great info on Platinum

[Guest guest]

This is very long, with a number of scans. This

highlights the fact that the scientists were well

aware of the Platinum problems, as as evidenced by the

continual marketing of breast implants, DID NOTHING!

When I have more time, I'll attempt to convert the

scans to electronic form. Not difficult to do, unless

the scans are poor quality.

If the scans don't post to the group, let me know, and

I'll send copies to each individual who wants them.

God Bless and Help Us All!

McGhan Implants Ingredients from FDA ~ Chief of PS Devices

Date: Sunday, December 05, 1999 10:20 AM

Subject: McGhan Implants

Ms. Pyron:

Your e-mail dated November 25 regarding McGhan Medical breast implants was forwarded to me. You had two inquiries: when your implants were manufactured and what are the material constituents. For the former, FDA does not have information on the date of manufacture of implants based on lot numbers. For this you can contact McGhan Medical in Santa Barbara, CA, 1-800-624-4261. Regarding the materials, this style of implant has a silicone rubber shell and is filled with silicone gel. The silicone rubber contains the following substances:

1. small amounts (parts per million) of various smaller silicones

2. small amounts (50 - 100 parts per million) of metals like tin and platinum and very trace amounts of other metals

3. trace amounts of volatile materials like xylene and other organic compounds

4. considerable amounts (approximately 20 parts per hundred) of finely powdered silica that is tightly bound to silicone rubber pouch

The filler material contains silicone oil and silicone gel in addition to the four materials (chemicals) listed above.

I hope this answers your questions.

Sincerely,

Chief, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Devices
