Abstract

A 57-year-old woman presented with a predominantly right-sided cellulitic area of her buttock after receiving multiple bilateral silicone injections in the buttocks. The workup revealed subcutaneous infection with rapidly growing mycobacteria. Surgical management and etiologic factors are discussed, and a review of the literature is presented.
