ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Vertical mammoplasty techniques have been widely used for breast reduction. The authors present the combination of superior pedicle vertical mammoplasty with liposuction in different regions in the treatment of severe breast hypertrophy in obese patients. We also propose some innovative methods in terms of surgical approach, breast parenchymal anatomy pattern and liposuction.METHODS:
A retrospective study of 50 female patients with severe hypertrophic breasts and obesity who underwent breast reduction in our department from February 2019 to February 2022 was performed. Pre- and postoperative photographs, breast parenchyma distribution and postoperative patient satisfaction were recorded.RESULTS:
Fifty patients underwent breast reduction. Through clinical examination, patient photo evaluation and satisfaction survey results. Good breast shape and projection, full upper pole of the breast, and high satisfaction results were obtained. There were no serious complications.CONCLUSION:
This technique is acceptable and reproducible. It is suitable for patients with varying degrees of breast hypertrophy, especially those with severe hypertrophic breasts and obesity. There are fewer associated complications and a lower rate of re-repair. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
