Abstract

GABILONDO ZUBIZARRETA, F. J. et al. Virginal breast hypertrophy: case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2007, vol.33, n.4, pp.215-220. ISSN 1989-2055.

We present a case of 12 years old patient, with a juvenile or virginal mammary hypertrophy and the postoperative result 5 years later without further recurrence and without any other treatment.  We decided to perform a breast reduction like Wise´s style, with bipedicle horizontal flap to transport nipple-areola complex to the new location, and to keep sensibility.  Five years later, the outcome is satisfactory to the patient, with very pleasant breast volume and shape, discret scars, good sensibility and without recurrence nor other surgical treatment.

Keywords : Virginal breast hypertrophy; breast reduction.
