Abstract
|
|
|
|
Foreign body granuloma is a chronic, proliferative, inflammatory reaction caused by persistent poorly biodegradable tissue irritants. Currently, many injectable materials are being used extensively for soft tissue augmentation. Although considered biologically inert, these materials can evoke adverse reactions such as foreign body granuloma. Mainly these complications are a result of the use of unproven products injected by unlicensed or unqualified practitioners. Here we report a case of foreign body granuloma in the left lower eyelid secondary to injection of extracts from safflower seeds.
