Abstract
Breast reduction has been proven effective in relieving the physical and psychological burdens of breast hypertrophy. Breast reduction aims at attaining a natural appearance that satisfies the patient because the female breast is among the most attractive cosmetic areas in female anatomy and a symbol of femininity. Several pedicle techniques have been explained in reduction mammoplasty; the superomedial pedicle is mainly used in Europe, while the inferior and central pedicle is preferred in the United States. AIM OF THE WORK: This study compared superomedial and inferior pedicle reduction mammoplasty techniques regarding complications and aesthetic outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty (20) female patients diagnosed with breast hypertrophy admitted for undergoing breast reduction in the plastic and reconstructive surgery unit at Alexandria main university hospital, Egypt, from June 2021 to November 2022 were included in the study. Patients were allocated into the superomedial pedicle (10) and inferior pedicle (10) groups. The aesthetic outcome was assessed subjectively using a 7-point scale and objectively by anthropometric measurements and Photogrammetry using BCCT. core software after six months of follow-up. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 23, whereby a P-value of
