Özet
Nowadays as more breast conserving surgeries and mastectomies are being performed, more breast implants are being used. Follow-up of these patients is as important as treatment. We, radiologists should be aware of normal imaging appearance of implants during follow ups. We should also be aware of complications which we may encounter during controls. In our essay, we aim to show the normal and pathological appearence of implants by sharing ultrasound, mammography and MR images from our clinic.
