300,000 breast implant surgeries are performed each year in the United States. Though not a form of cancer in the traditional sense, ALCL
(anaplastic large cell lymphoma) has been associated with a specific type of breast implant.

Dr. Jay Agarwal, chief of plastic surgery at Huntsman Cancer Insitute, about which type of breast implant is most likely to be presented with the signs and symptoms of ALCL.
