Silikoni on turvallista!

"Safety issues about silicone have been primarily focused on their use in breast implants and the possible link with breast cancer and autoimmune diseases such as arthritis."


"A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1992 studied the potential for breast cancer in over 11,000 women who had received silicone breast implants. This study "did not find an increased risk of cancer among women who had received breast implants, although the length of follow-up, the completeness of follow-up, and the size [of the study group] would have allowed the detection of such a risk."


"In an official statement by the American College of Rheumatology, based on several research studies involving over 87,000 women, it was concluded that there is "no reason to discourage women from considering breast [implant surgery] on the basis of acquiring or [worsening] a connective tissue disorder."

"Now we have good evidence that implants don't cause the maladies for which they've been blamed. And the exculpatory studies keep coming; two new ones were presented at the annual meeting of the American College of Rheumatology. On October 22, that group issued an official statement declaring that "studies provide compelling evidence that silicone implants expose patients to no demonstrable additional risk for connective tissue or rheumatic disease."


"Silicone itself has become a casualty. Science suggests it's a benign, useful substance, vital to all sorts of medical products."

"Recent scientific studies have absolved silicone gel breast implants of causing health problems in women. In the past year alone, two major multi-year studies found no evidence linking these implants to connective tissue disease."


"We now know that silicone breast implants do not cause systemic disease," says Dr. Young. "But other questions still remain, specifically regarding how to successfully detect silent ruptures, as well as the overall rupture rate of silicone implants."

"Animal studies have addressed the possibility that silicone may promote systemic disease in women by acting as an adjuvant or an antigen to induce immune responses, by altering normal regulation of the immune system, or by inducing systemic inflammation. These potential effects have been tested in specialized animal models of autoimmune diseases."


"The preponderance of data from these studies indicate that silicone implants do not alter incidence or severity of autoimmune disease. Although silicone gel has been shown to possess weak adjuvant activity when it is injected as an emulsified preparation with a foreign antigen, there is no evidence that silicone breast implants precipitate novel immune responses or induce systemic inflammation. The only reasonably consistent effect of silicone on the immune system in animals is a depression in natural killer cell activity. However, no physiologic consequence of this depression has been demonstrated."


"While there are data showing that silicone may cause local activation of inflammatory responses, there are no consistent data to suggest systemic inflammation or systemic induction of anti-silicone or autoreactive responses in women with silicone breast implants."


"No association was evident between breast implants and any of the individual connective tissue diseases, all definite connective diseases combined, or the other autoimmune/rheumatic conditions. Sjögren's syndrome was a possible exception to this statement."
