    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Plastic Surgery

    Background:

    • Gynecomastia evaluation requires differentiating physiologic from pathologic forms.
    • Understanding etiology and classification across age groups is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the occurrence, pathology, and etiology of gynecomastia.
    • To compare surgical techniques for large or longstanding gynecomastia.
    • To evaluate the apple-coring technique's efficacy.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of gynecomastia and surgical techniques.
    • Analysis of four patient cases treated with the apple-coring technique.

    Main Results:

    • The apple-coring technique offers an inconspicuous scar, corrects areolar hypertrophy, and improves chest contour.
    • It maintains nipple viability and reduces complications like inverted nipples.
    • Four treated patients showed encouraging outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • The apple-coring technique is a valuable addition for managing large gynecomastia.
    • While not perfect, it provides favorable results and fewer deformities.
