“…The resulting procedures are categorized according to the origin of the pedicle. Weiner et al (5) described a procedure by which the nipple -areolar flap receives its blood supply from the superior pedicle. Ribeiro (15), Robbins (16), Courtiss et al (17), and Georgiade et al (4) described the use of the inferior pedicle.…”

Summary : Background : Breast reconstruction generally involves autologous tissue transplantation and placement of a mammary prosthesis. When the patient's breasts are extremely large and ptotic, breast reconstruction often results in significantly asymmetrical appearance. However, a good aesthetic outcome after reconstruction surgery following cancer resection is an important quality-of-life factor. We evaluated the efficacy of touch-up surgery, either reduction mammaplasty or mastopexy, performed on the contralateral breast for symmetrization. Methods : Reduction mammaplasty was performed on the contralateral breast in 2 patients and mastopexy was performed on the contralateral breast in 1 patient after reconstruction surgery following cancer resection, between 2008 and 2014. We reviewed each patient's medical record for general clinical information and for the methods of breast cancer resection and breast reconstruction used, wait time between breast cancer resection and touch-up surgery, preservation of the sensitivity of the nipple-areola complex after the touch-up surgery, and aesthetic outcome (based on visual analog scale score). Results : Wait times in the 3 cases were 4, 9, and 18 months. Nipple-areolar sensitivity was well preserved in all 3 cases. Aesthetic outcomes were judged "excellent" or "very good." Conclusion : Revision surgery on the contralateral breast 4 to 18 months after breast reconstruction substantially improves the aesthetic outcome.

“…With the introduction of the key-hole model (with or without a predefi ned areolar incision) and wedge glandular resection, satisfactory aesthetic shape of the breast was achieved. 12,21 More recently, the focus has been placed on reducing the length of the scars -the concept of the large inverted T pattern was followed by J or L scars. 22,23 and ending with the vertical scar mammaplasty 24 .…”

“…[ 2 ]. Single pedicle techniques used are superior (Wiener) [ 3 ], inferior (Robbins) [ 4 ], lateral (Skoog) [ 5 ], medial (Nahabedian) [ 6 ], and central (Gasperoni) [ 7 ]. The vertical bipedicle of McKissock and the inferior pedicle of Robbins gained wide acceptance and popularity due to the safety of the NAC survival and sensibility preservation.…”
