Abstract:
Placement of prosthetic breast implants for augmentation or reconstruction is common. Two specific safety concerns are considered in this article: breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) and complexes of symptoms known as breast implant illness. In response to a case involving a patient with concerns about BIA-ALCL, this commentary notes that triage, counseling, and treatment are guided in practice by available data in the literature. The commentary also discusses ethical considerations regarding breast implants and related illnesses.
