Injectable fluid silicone therapy. Human morbidity and mortality
R. Ellenbogen and L. Rubin
Four patients who had received silicone injections had the following
complications: migration, hepatic disease manifested as granulomatous
hepatitis (previously undescribed, to our knowledge), hypopigmentation, and
death. Silicone should now be considered as a possible cause of hepatic
granulomas in an appropriate host.
