Breast Implants linked to cancer |

My doctor has talked to me about reconstructive surgery but he |
|
didn't mention anything about the risk of cancer from the |
|
implant. |
|
Breast implants linked to cancer: What women should know |
|
Some women get breast implants as part of reconstruction after |
|
breast cancer. Others do it to feel more confident. |
|
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons says around 550,000 |
|
women last year received breast implants, but the FDA published |
|
a report this year linking a rare cancer to the implants. |
|
So far, there have been 359 reported cases globally, including |
|
nine deaths. |
|
The risk is low, but one in 30,000 women with implants could |
|
develop it, including one patient who says she is battling the |
|
disease and her insurance company, reports CBS News |
|
correspondent Anna Werner. |
|
"I was never informed that I could possibly get cancer. |
|
Basically they said they're 100 percent safe," Rogers said. |
