ALDANA-UBILLUS, Celso A; SANDOVAL-PEREZ, José H e PENA-ESCOBAR, Adriana F. A rare late hematoma after aesthetic breast augmentation. Case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2023, vol.49, n.1, pp.69-74. Epub 15-Maio-2023. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922023000100010.
Late hematoma in breast implant surgery is a rare complication. It can occur several years after surgery and most of the times the etiology remains unexplained.
We report a hemorrhagic complication 5 years after aesthetic breast augmentation with silicone prosthesis. Surgical exploration revealed a dark brown fluid collection between the periprosthetic capsule and the implant and signs of bleeding in the muscular plane. The pathological examination reports a fibrous capsule without vasculitis, with a trace of focal hemorrhage and some benign inflammatory cells.
