Breast erythema and nodular skin metastasis as the first manifestation of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma

Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) associated with rough textured breast implants was first reported in 1997. It is a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma originating from a T lymphocyte which occurs on average 10.9 years after placement of the breast implant. BIA-ALCL mainly manifests as a periprosthetic...

Sumario:Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) associated with rough textured breast implants was first reported in 1997. It is a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma originating from a T lymphocyte which occurs on average 10.9 years after placement of the breast implant. BIA-ALCL mainly manifests as a periprosthetic seroma or a mass adjacent to the implant. To our knowledge, we describe the first case of BIA-ALCL with initial presentation by indurate erythematous plates located in both breasts and the progressive appearance of several asymptomatic metastatic nodular lesions that have been appearing on the right arm some weeks later.
