Invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the breast associated with breast augmentation implant capsule

Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast is rare, representing less than 0.1% of all breast cancers. To date, there have been 20 reported cases of SCC associated with breast augmentation, usually in patients with long-standing implants. A patient is reported here with primary squamous carcinoma of the breast associated with textured saline implants. Due to the paucity of cases, there is limited information on the incidence and management of implant-associated SCC of the breast.
