Tuberous breast deformity, a complex congenital anomaly, presents challenges in classification and treatment. This study evaluates 16 patients, proposing a flexible algorithm for managing this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Congenital Anomalies
  • Breast Reconstruction

Background:

  • Tuberous breast deformity is a challenging congenital breast anomaly.
  • Existing nomenclature, classification, and treatment strategies vary significantly.
  • This condition requires specialized approaches for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate tuberous breast deformities in a cohort of 16 patients.
  • To classify these deformities using a specific three-tier system.
  • To discuss a flexible treatment algorithm for tuberous breast deformity.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective evaluation of 16 patients with 23 tuberous breast deformities.
  • Classification of deformities based on the authors' institutional three-tier system.
