Path: Silicone droplets/vacuoles in lung tissue, pulmonary vasculature, or lymph nodes

See also under VIm. Silicone can be found lying free in the interstitium, engulfed in macrophages or giant cells, in pulmonary capilllaries or the pleura.�Data on staining and X-ray identification methods of silicone at PMID 23020716. Silicone can also be found in tissues other than and distant from the lung. See also under XVcq.
