On December 18, 2018, France's National Agency for the Safety of Medicines & Health Products ordered the recall of textured breast implants manufactured by Allergan from the European market, stating that the implants "have been linked to a rare form of cancer"—specifically, anaplastic large cell lymphoma. On December 19, 2018, Allergan stated that it would remove its textured breast implants from the European market. Following these announcements, Allergan's stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on December 19, 2018.
