I don't think you get all of your breast tissue removed for implants. So, if you still have breast tissue in there yes, you can still get cancer.

They don't remove breast tissue to do implants. Even women who have mastectomies almost always have some breast tissue remaining. It's not like a discrete organ ... breast tissue reaches from the collarbone to the mid-lower ribcage, from the sternum to the axilla (underarm). Very hard to get it all. Yes, women with implants can get breast cancer. Men can get breast cancer.

they dont remove any tissue for implants. They still have boobs, so they can still get cancer. Its usually helpful to check for family history as this tyoe of cancer is believed to be related to genes. Actually more men get breast cancer than women do in the UK. It is not necessarily different types of cancer that grow e.g in lungs or whatever. They are given these names usually depending on where they grow.

Yes because not all of the tissue can be removed. It is far less likely though
