Diagnosis and management of seroma following breast augmentation: an update.

Abstract

This article is an update to the decision and management algorithms for management of periprosthetic space infection or seroma following breast augmentation, originally published in "Decision and Management Algorithms to Address Patient and Food and Drug Administration Concerns Regarding Breast Augmentation and Implants," published in the October 2004 issue of this Journal. This update specifically addresses additional diagnosis and management alternatives for management of seroma in breast augmentation patients that may relate to lymphoproliferative disorders or anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
