[A woman with subcutaneous nodules after buttock augmentation].
Volume augmentation of the buttocks with injectable soft-tissue fillers is a cosmetic procedure; delayed adverse effects include the formation of granulomatous inflammatory nodules. We describe a 35-year-old woman with early-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma with multiple nodular subcutaneous densities on CT scans in both gluteal regions. These were the result of frequent injections with human collagen.
