Silicone Embolus<br />
Former Miss. Argentina (1994) died in December 2009 from<br />
silicone <strong>com</strong>plications of a “gluteal plasty” which involved<br />
injection of liquid silicone.<br />
In November 2006, this occurrence (44 patients) was presented at<br />
the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America<br />
(RSNA) where the idea of “Pump Up” parties was discussed for the<br />
very first time.<br />
Often members of the male-to-female transgender <strong>com</strong>munity<br />
gather for liquid silicone injections in hopes of feminizing their<br />
appearance.
