Textured Breast Implant Cancer Lawsuits
According to a news article posted on mskcc.org, textured implants have been linked to a rare type of cancer called Breast Implant Associated-Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published new safety requirements for breast implants on October 27, 2021. The FDA placed a “black box” warning on all types of breast implants in order to notify patients of the potential risks, including Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma, and other symptoms, including joint pain, fatigue, brain fog, memory loss, and tiredness.
The news report states that the FDA’s new safety rules now require manufacturers to sell their breast implants only to medical professionals who review a Patient Decision Checklist of possible risks with their patients prior to breast surgery.

Textured breast implants have been connected with BIA-ALCL, a rare form of immune system cancer. According to the FDA, the risk is between 1 in 3,000 to 1 in 30,000 patients and the report believes there estimates could be too high.
In 2019, the FDA announced the recall of textured breast implants and expanders manufactured by Allergan. In its announcement, the FDA affirmed that no implant removal was necessary and that symptoms such as a lump in the breast or armpit, rash, breast swelling, persistent breast pain, or any difference in the implants should be examined by your surgeon. However, these symptoms do not mean the patient has BIA-ALCL. Some of these symptoms may be the result of trauma to the breast area or a leaking implant.
