Silicone lymphadenopathy

Silicone-induced lymphadenopathy is the presence of silicone in a lymph node.

Silicone can spread to regional lymph nodes, and remote organs, sometimes mimicking malignancy.

Silicone usually migrates to the axillary lymph nodes but may migrate to other lymph nodes as well as extranodal sites causing various patterns of lymphadenopathy and even extranodal pathology
