ABSTRACT
Patients submitted to augmentation mammoplasty are often concerned about the possibility of sagging breasts. Although plastic surgeons usually respond that this is unlikely, this is not supported by the literature. This study aimed to precisely understand the changes in nipple aréola complex position after breast implantation, especially phenomena of "tendency to ptosis" and "bottoming out." Methods: Medicai and photographic records were selected from among patients operated on at the Ivo Pitanguy Institute - 38th Infirmary of the Santa Casa de Misericordia of Rio de Janeiro from January 2009 to December 2010 and analyzed, and a literature review was performed. Results: Among 20 breasts in 10 patients, bottoming out was observed in 9 breasts in 6 patients, including 5 moderate and 4 mild. There was tendency to ptosis in 9 breasts in 5 patients, including 3 mild and 6 moderate. Only one breast did not present changes in the nipple-areola complex. Conclusion: Bottoming out and tendency to ptosis occur frequently after breast augmentation and require further to ptosis occur frequently after breast augmentation and require further study...
RESUMO
A mastoplastia de aumento, muito comumente, gera na paciente indagações acerca da possibilidade de queda das mamas. A resposta do cirurgião plástico é geralmente afirmativa, porém, este não encontra respaldo na literatura. Neste trabalho, objetivamos justamente entender a variação de posição do complexo aréolo-papilar pós-inclusão de implantes mamários observando, principalmente, os fenômenos de "tendência à ptose" e "bottoming out". Métodos: Seleção de prontuários dentre as pacientes operadas no Instituto Ivo Pitanguy - Enfermaria 38 da Santa Casa de Misericórdia do Rio de Janeiro de jan/2009 a dez/201O, com base em critérios de inclusão e exclusão, utilizando-se para esta pesquisa de revisão dos prontuários, registro fotográfico e revisão da literatura. Resultados: Dentre as 20 mamas (10 pacientes) analisadas observamos "bottoming out" em nove mamas (seis pacientes), das quais cinco de graus moderados e quatro leves. Houve "tendência à ptose" em nove mamas (cinco pacientes) sendo três leves e seis moderadas. Conclusão: Os fenômenos bottomlng out" e tendência à ptose" são uma realidade que precisa ser amplamente estudada para melhor esclarecimento das pacientes...
