It is unsightly. But often, it is pain, impaired spinal posture and the shoulder girdle and the psychological effects that bring the teenager to make an application for aesthetic surgery. We report two cases of juvenile and bilateral gigantomastia in adolescents aged 13 years old and unresolved. They have lost their hope before surgical procedure.
