ABSTRACT
Breast cancer treatment has dramatically changed over the past century. Since Halsted's first description of radical mastectomy in 1882, breast reconstruction has evolved slowly from being considered as a useless or even dangerous procedure by surgeons to the possibility nowadays of reconstructing almost any kind of defect. In this review on the development of breast reconstruction, we outline the historical milestone innovations that led to the current management of the mastectomy defect in an attempt to understand the economic, social and psychological factors, which contributed to slow down its acceptance for several decades.

We report two rare cases of inflammatory reactions with multiple subcutaneous facial painful collections after Hyaluronic acid injections, expose their management and discuss aetiologic hypothesis. Due to unfavourable evolution despite antibiotic treatment, surgical drainage was performed. Immune-mediated delayed hypersensitivity reactions were the most probable cause.
