Intraductal extension of silicone from a ruptured breast implant.

A J Leibman1, M B Kossoff, B D Kruse.   

Abstract

Silicone rupture is a known complication of closed capsulotomy. Imaging of silicone within breast tissue after rupture of an implant is not uncommon. Intraductal extension of silicone on mammography is a very rare finding. This case report described the imaging features of silicone within the breast tissue and ducts that necessitated subcutaneous mastectomy for definitive treatment.
