BIA-ALCL AND DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS WITH PRIMARY SYSTEMIC ANAPLASTIC LARGE CELL LYMPHOMA: CASE REPORT
Keywords:
Breast implant, Anaplastic large-cell limphoma, Breast câncerAbstract
This article reports a case of a patient who underwent breast augmentation in 2016 who evolved after 4 years with symptoms of adenomegaly of the supraclavicular, axillary and left cervical chains, as well as phlogosis in the ipsilateral breast. The case reported and publications raised bring to light the discussion of a case whose main diagnostic hypothesis was BIA-ALCL. She had a previous history of breast augmentation with placement of microtextured implants, in addition to clinical findings, physical examination, affected lymph node chains and imaging tests with compatible images in the CTR of the left breast.The markers obtained through the biopsy with immunohistochemistry of lymph node tissue were CD30 positive (strong and diffuse) and ALK negative, compatible with the diagnosis of BIA-ALCL.However, the atypical outcome obtained with the uncharacteristic findings of the surgical specimen after implant removal and bilateral total capsulectomy will be the focus of our case report.
