Popis: The 37-year-old patient had breast augmentation with dual plane placement of textured gel implants. Five years later, May 2009, the right breast developed swelling, redness, and tenderness with mild fever. Ultrasound showed fluid in the pocket. She was started on antibiotics and the implant removed. This implant was replaced 3 months later. She developed a seroma in November 2009 that was aspirated. The Group discussed possible causes and possible treatments.
