Successful Excision of Gynecomastia with Nipple Repositioning Technique Utilizing the Dermoglandular Flap
Authors
Abstract:
There are many surgical techniques for treating gynecomastia. We report a new surgical technique in an adolescent with fatty glandular gynecomastia grade III, who was referred from an endocrinologist to our clinic. We excised the gynecomastia with nipple repositioning utilizing the dermoglandular flap (about 1 cm thickness and 10 cm width). After one month, no complication was detected and the patient was satisfied with his new breasts. We suggest this technique for fatty glandular gynecomastia grade III.

Macrothelia, or nipple hypertrophy, is a condition that may cause severe psychological distress to those who suffer from it.
