Central/Inferior Pedicle Technique for Reduction Mammaplasty: A Systematic Review

Background: Intention of reduction mammoplasty is to minimize the breast volume and maintain supply of blood and innervations to NAC (nipple-areola-complex), to lift NAC to higher position in mound of breast using any reliable technique like central pedicle technique. Methods: This research selected and observed 15 patients who underwent central pedicle technique for mammaplasty of breast reduction. Age criterium included for this research is 18 years to 60 years for 5 years from Chinese patients. In addition to these, this study systematically reviewed about central pedicle technique for 25 years. Papers were selected from 1996 to 2021. Results: Using central pedicle technique, shape and projection of breast were reduced. Such changes of measurements showed that postoperative technique leads to long-term satisfactory impact. Conclusion: Central pedicle technique was found to be best, reliable and safe technique for reduction mammaplasty. Reduction mammaplasty is used for reducing the ptotic and large breasts. It provides more satisfactory and good aesthetic outcomes. Majority of patients do not have any complications postoperative. Complications rate is minimal when central pedicle technique is used for reduction mammaplasty. Patients with ptotic and large breasts would have huge advantage postoperative.
