Abstract

Melvyn Opal

Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) has emerged as a concerning complication following breast augmentation surgery. While the exact etiology remains elusive, recent research has shed light on the potential role of bacterial colonization on breast implants in the pathogenesis of this rare lymphoma. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the current understanding of bacterial involvement in BIA-ALCL development, exploring whether it serves as a coincidental witness or a crucial chauffeur in disease progression.
