Description

A case of locally advanced breast carcinoma after augmentation mammaplasty is reported, and carcinogenesis in response to foreign bodies and the differential diagnosis between foreign body granuloma and breast cancer are discussed. The patient was a 51-year-old woman into whose breasts silicone-fluid had been injected 25 years ago. A mass with an ulcer was found in her right breast, and a subcutaneous mastectomy was performed based on a diagnosis of foreign body granuloma. The tumor was intraoperatively diagnosed by the frozen section technique to be a ductal carcinoma. A radical mastectomy was immediately performed. Microscopically, the tumor was found to be solid-tubular carcinoma with positive nodes, and foreign bodies and granulomas were found to be present in or adjacent to the tumor tissue.
