The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is now warning that breast implants filled with either silicone or saline may, on rare occasions, give rise to cancer in the scar tissue around breast implants. The safety notice was published this month and is based on an extensive review of the…

On Sept 8, 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a safety communication to highlight reports of squamous cell carcinoma and various lymphomas in the scar tissue, or capsule, that surrounds breast implants. The lymphomas are distinct from breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), which is also…

Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has a characteristic feature that distinguishes it from the other types of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) – the presence of a marker on its surface called CD30. It can be either cutaneous, systemic, or around breast implants. The systemic type of ALCL can be further classified…

Jama Oncology in fact, it has recently published a letter which estimates its impact in the United States. The new data comes from a study conducted by researchers from Columbia University in New York and…

The term “relapsed” refers to disease that reappears or grows again after a period of remission. The term “refractory” is used to describe when the lymphoma does not respond to treatment (meaning that the cancer cells continue to grow) or when the response to treatment does not last very long….

Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that can be aggressive with rapid speed, thus mandating a timely diagnosis to optimize treatment and deter progression. NHL classically presents with lymphadenopathy and constitutional symptoms. However, ALCL can present with nonspecific cutaneous manifestations with minimal or…

The results show that the extent of the reaction between alumina and carbon increases with increasing…

On Monday a motion to dismiss was granted in an Eastern District of Tennessee lawsuit concerning failure to warn of potential side effects of Sientra Inc.’s breast implants. The plaintiff, per the opinion, underwent breast reconstruction after a double-mastectomy. After the procedure, the patient experience swelling indicative of breast implant…
