Y-scar vertical mammaplasty for treatment of mild macromastia with pseudoptosis.

Abstract:

:Y-scar vertical mammaplasty is a technical modification of vertical scar breast reduction, which avoids superior areolar scarring. It has been previously shown to be particularly useful in young patients with mild macromastia and minimal or no ptosis. This case report presents a new indication for which to apply this technical approach. A 58-year-old patient presented with mild macromastia of mainly the inferior pole and pseudoptosis. Since there was no need to transpose the nipple, a Y-scar vertical mammaplasty was performed, removing tissue from the lower pole and preserving upper-pole fullness. Furthermore, superior areolar scarring was avoided. In conclusion, Y-scar vertical mammaplasty may find its use in other less commonly seen patient profiles such as this presented case of an older patient with slightly enlarged breasts and pseudoptosis.
