Correction of tubular deformity of mammary glands of type II-III using lipofilling technology

Objectives: introduction into clinical practice of the developed method of correction of tubular deformity of mammary glands of type II-III using lipografting technology, internal extension and a recurrent blocking suture. Introduction: From the point of view of aesthetics, the probability of obtaining a suboptimal result of correction of tubular deformity of the mammary glands using modern techniques remains quite high. The most difficult surgical procedure in the process of correcting the tubular deformity of the mammary glands, the risk of developing complications specific to augmentation mammoplasty (capsular contracture, implant malformation, long-term recurrent seroma) and the high frequency of repeated operations due to patients' dissatisfaction with the aesthetic result explain the urgency of developing and introducin Materials / method: The study included 100 patients who underwent correction of tubular deformity of the mammary glands using lipografting technology, internal extension and circular recurrent blocking suture in the hospital of the Department of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery at RAMI Medical Center in the period from 2015 to 2025. The average age of the patients was 22.5±3 years. The maximum follow–up period was 116 months, the minimum was 3 months, and the average follow–up period was 43.3 months ± 1.32 months (M±SD). Results: Analysis of the results of correction of tubular deformity of the mammary glands using the developed method showed that the incidence of specific complications of mild and moderate degree does not exceed 6% (p > 0.05). No serious complications were identified in this study. The results of the BREAST-Q questionnaire survey showed a significant improvement in the quality of life and a high degree of patient satisfaction with the aesthetic result of corrective surgery using lipofilling technology (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the developed method using lipofilling technology and a return blocking suture can be considered the method of choice for correcting type II-III tubular deformity of the mammary glands.
