Abstract:
:In cases of severe macromastia, the free nipple graft technique has been the traditional alternative to pedicle transposition. Distress over nipple survival in large reduction mammaplasty and long pedicle transposition is largely responsible for this.A retrospective investigation of the records of 142 reduction mammaplasty patients was carried out to determine whether nipple survival or overall complication rates were significantly different in patients undergoing larger (>1500 g per side) as compared with smaller reductions (< 1500 g per side). The 2 patient groups were compared with respect to mild or severe complications. Data were analyzed using Fisher exact test and 2-sample t tests. A P value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. No patient in either group had total nipple loss. There were no statistically significant differences in major or minor complications between the 2 groups. In our experience, the inferior pedicle, Wise pattern reduction is a reliable and predictable method of reduction, appropriate for all breast sizes and pedicle lengths.
