CONT

Migración del gel de silicona: El gel de silicona puede migrar a la pared torácica y la axila. Pequeñas cantidades microscópicas de silicona pueden aparecer en los ganglios axilares, debido al trasudado mínimo de gel a través de la membrana. Cuando existe una ruptura extracapsular cantidades más importantes de silicona pueden dirigirse por los canales linfáticos hasta los ganglios.
