About the Recall
Allergan's BIOCELL textured breast implants recalled over cancer risk
In July 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requested that Allergan recall its BIOCELL textured breast implants and tissue expanders after new data found an increased risk of a rare cancer called breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) associated with the implants.
The FDA first identified a possible association between breast implants and ALCL in 2011. At the time of the recall there were 573 unique cases of BIA-ALCL and 33 deaths globally – of the 573 unique cases, 481 were attributed to Allergan implants. According to the FDA’s analysis, the risk of BIA-ALCL is approximately six times higher with Allergan BIOCELL textured implants than with textured implants from other manufacturers.
Know the Signs
What is BIA-ALCL?
Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is not actually breast cancer – it’s a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that can develop around breast implants. Although BIA-ALCL is mostly found in the scar tissue and fluid near the implant, it can also spread throughout the body. BIA-ALCL often develops eight to ten years after surgery. Common symptoms include:
- Redness
- Nosebleeds that happen often
- Breast enlargement
- Lumps in the breast or armpit
- Skin rash
- Fatigue
- Weight loss
