Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy may undergo a septal myectomy (Morrow procedure). This procedure involves excising a portion of the hypertrophied septum below the aortic valve using a heart-lung machine to improve blood flow through the LVOT. Effective preoperative and postoperative nursing management ensures successful patient outcomes, minimizes complications, and...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Gender identity is a natural variation, not a pathology, with "gender incongruence" replacing "gender identity disorder" in ICD-11.
  • Delayed or denied gender-affirming care negatively impacts physical, psychological, and social well-being.
  • Current care models emphasize multidisciplinary integration of endocrine and surgical management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review diagnostic considerations and surgical management for transgender patients from a plastic surgery perspective.
  • To synthesize current evidence and best practices for multidisciplinary transgender patient care.
  • To support clinicians in providing safe, effective, and individualized treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on diagnostic criteria and surgical interventions for transgender care.
  • Synthesis of evidence regarding endocrine and surgical management strategies.
  • Compilation of surgical options for transgender women and transgender men.

Main Results:

  • Surgical options for transgender women include breast augmentation, vaginoplasty, facial feminization, and voice surgeries.
  • Surgical options for transgender men include mastectomy, chest contouring, hysterectomy, vaginectomy, and genital surgeries.
  • Multidisciplinary approach integrating endocrinology and plastic surgery is key.

Conclusions:

  • Plastic surgery plays a vital role in comprehensive gender-affirming care.
  • Individualized, multidisciplinary treatment plans are essential for optimal outcomes.
  • This review provides a framework for clinicians managing transgender and gender-diverse patients.
