RATIONALE: Complications associated with breast implants pose a significant obstacle to improving the quality of life for patients undergoing implant-based breast reconstruction. Due to the intricate nature of their presentation, diagnosis often becomes challenging and perplexing. Herein, we present a case report detailing the diagnostic and therapeutic processes employed in managing implant-related complications in a patient with multiple malignancies who underwent immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy.
PATENT CONCERNS: The patient, a 48-year-old woman, presented with severe pain and hardening in her left breast. She had previously undergone nipple-sparing mastectomy followed by immediate implant-based breast reconstruction 3 years ago.
DIAGNOSES: Upon admission, we suspected a simple diagnosis of capsular contracture. However, upon investigation, she had a medical history of colon cancer, breast cancer, and acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia. Furthermore, she recently experienced nipple hemorrhage.
INTERVENTIONS: Considering her clinical manifestations, we postulated the possibility of tumor recurrence along with potential presence of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma. The situation took a new turn, as diagnostic imaging techniques including breast MRI, and ultrasound revealed indications of potential prosthesis rupture and periprosthetic infection.
OUTCOMES: Ultimately, en bloc capsulectomy with implant removal was performed, revealing no evidence of implant rupture or infection but rather indicating delayed hematoma formation.
LESSONS: An accurate diagnosis of complications associated with breast prosthesis reconstruction is crucial for effective treatment. The examination and treatment processes employed in this case offer valuable insights toward achieving a more precise diagnosis of prosthesis-related complications, particularly in patients with complex medical histories.
