M. Gorgu et al., Late and long-standing capsular hematoma after aesthetic breast augmentation with a saline-filled silicone prosthesis: A case report, AES PLAS SU, 23(6), 1999, pp. 443-444
Late capsular hematoma is an extremely rare complication after the implanta
tion of silicone breast prostheses for aesthetic or reconstructive objectiv
es. We present a unique case of late capsular hematoma in an aesthetic brea
st augmentation with a saline-filled, textured silicone implant, which rema
ined for a year after formation.
