Abstract
A case of malignant lymphoma developing in a regional lymph node nine years after insertion of silastic finger prostheses is reported. A striking feature of the histology was the presence of multinucleated giant cells containing silastic particles, situated between the tumour cells. The significance of this is discussed.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
