    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery

    Context:

    • Macromastia presents significant physical and aesthetic challenges.
    • Reduction mammaplasty is a common surgical intervention for macromastia.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of Pitange's method for reduction mammaplasty.
    • To assess outcomes including breast shape, nipple position, and lactational function.

    Summary:

    • Fifteen patients with macromastia underwent reduction mammaplasty using Pitange's technique.
    • The method involved improvements in nipple site, areola complex transposition, and dermal pedicle design.
    • Postoperative follow-up ranged from 6 months to 7 years, with high patient satisfaction.

    Impact:

    • Pitange's method demonstrates effectiveness in improving breast shape and scar concealment.
    • The technique shows potential for preserving nipple-areola complex viability and function.
    • This approach offers a viable option for managing macromastia while considering aesthetic and functional outcomes.
