12 LIPOSUCTION VS SURGICAL EXCISION OF GYNECOMASTIA

Journal Title: Indian journal of applied basic medical sciences - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 31

Abstract

Background:Gynaecomastia is usually treated with liposuction or liposuction with excision of the glandular tissue. The type of surgery chosen depends on the grade of the condition. IJABMS JULY 2018 Objective: In this study, we aim to discuss the outcomes of the surgical management of the gynaecomastia and assess the morbidity and complication rates associated with the procedure to determine whether certain surgical techniques produce better outcomes. Materials and Methods: The technique complies with all recommended protocols for different grades of gynaecomastia. It uses liposuction, gland excision, or both, leaving only minimal post-operative scars. Conclusion: The study has found that moderate sized gynaecomastia whether true or pseudo gynaecomastia with mild to moderate breast redundancy can be managed easily and effectively by liposuction alone or combined with glandular resection while the conventional infraareolar subcutaneous mastectomy still gives satisfactory results and with no need to remove extra skin.On the other hand,large gynaecomastia with severe breast redundancy can be treated effectively by the inferior pedicle technique without vertical scar. Keywords: liposuction; gynaecomastia surgery; gynaecomastia
