    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Breast augmentation is a common procedure.
    • Early detection of breast cancer is crucial for prognosis.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of breast carcinoma detected 3 and 4 years post-augmentation.
    • Patients presented with palpable masses in augmented breasts.

    Findings:

    • Malignancy was confirmed histopathologically.
    • The presence of implants did not impede cancer detection in these cases.

    Implications:

    • The potential for breast cancer in augmented patients necessitates awareness.
    • Clinical breast examination and imaging require careful consideration in augmented patients.
    • Further research into optimal screening protocols for augmented breasts is warranted.
