Abstract
A woman of 59 years of age, who had bilateral breast implants, 20 years earlier, presented with both breasts hard, inflamed and ulcerated, which suggested bilateral siliconomas. Bilateral mastectomy was carried out in two stages because she developed disseminated intravascular coagulation during the first operation.
