Silicone augmentation mammoplasty has been postulated as a cause of environmentally-induced scleroderma. While representing a small proportion of all alleged causes of scleroderma, the issue has huge social, ethical and medicolegal ramifications. The hypothesis, however, has been recently questioned in results of comparative studies. We have previously reported no association between augmentation mammoplasty and scleroderma. However, all information was self-reported including augmentation mammoplasty status, and the prosthesis type was not identified. In addition, data were not available from untraceable cases. The current study addresses these issues.
