ABSTRACT
We report the case of a patient who presented with rupture of a silicone breast implant showing acute and chronic inflammation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed silicone foci outside the implant shell and inside the pectoralis muscles that represented intra- and extracapsular ruptures of the implant and silicone granuloma. There were distinct fluid-fluid levels of various signal intensities and no signs of implant collapse such as ‘linguine sign.’ Rather, we detected enlargement of both the implant shell and the breast.
