The First Reported Case of Breast Granulomas Secondary to Huge Amount of Baby Oil Self-injection

Using fillers for aesthetic corrections purposes are becoming more and more popular amongst patients due to its less invasive nature compared to surgery. A 46-year old female patient said after her first baby born, she lost the perkiness and fullness of the breasts. Then she injected her breasts with baby oil found at home with a syringe with about 200 cc for each breast and she was quite content with the results. Segmented mastectomy and reconstruction was performed. The post-op pathology results reported the removed tissue as foreign-body granulation tissue. This is the first report of breast baby oil self-injection complications in the literature.
