Injection of liquid silicone into the breast was performed illicitly in the 1950s to 1960s and was subsequently prohibited. Many complications arise from silicone injection, and liquid silicone migration is a complication that has not been widely reported. The authors present magnetic resonance images of a patient with liquid silicone migration from the breast to the upper chest and lower neck. Breast ultrasonographic and mammographic findings are also presented for correlation.
