Overview

Case report highlights diagnosis and management of anaplastic large cell lymphoma in high-risk individuals, suggesting safety concerns for textured implants.

Key Points

  • To present a case of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma in a genetically predisposed individual and discuss its implications.
  • Case presentation of a 41-year-old woman with a family history of cancer
  • Imaging techniques including PET-CT and MRI to assess the extent of disease
  • Histopathological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis and staging of the lymphoma.
  • Confirmed diagnosis of pT2N0M0 (Stage IB) breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma
  • Successful surgical intervention with bilateral en bloc capsulectomy
  • Negative follow-up imaging for recurrence at six months post-operation.
