The complications associated with the hemi-silicone implants of the foot have been well documented. Reasons for their failure are many. In the past, there has been an overuse of these devices without strict adherence to their proper indications. Today, these implant failures are being manifested by extremely unusual pathology. Although silicone has not been shown to be carcinogenic, the florid reaction seen in this case demonstrated a degree of "malignancy" that may have incapacitated the patient.
足部半硅酮植入物相关的并发症已有充分记录。其失败的原因众多。过去，这些装置存在过度使用的情况，未严格遵循其恰当的适应证。如今，这些植入物失败表现为极其罕见的病理情况。尽管尚未证明硅酮具有致癌性，但在该病例中所见的显著反应显示出一定程度的“恶性”，这可能已使患者丧失行动能力。
