Le traitement chirurgical des gynecomasties [a'propos de deux series de 95 cas]

ABSTRACT

The management of gynecomastias is mainly surgical and aims to lead to a normal male thoracic morphology with minimal cicatrical damages. The classical technique based on Dufourmentel and Webster principles is still the most used; however, it does not allow to manage all clinical forms of gynecomastia. Through a study of two large series; those of J. Baudet [Bordeaux] including 65 cases [first series] and Grabb [New-York] including 30 cases [second series], we try here to point out the tendencies as for the different surgical approaches, the glandular resection, the eventual cutaneous interventions as well the recent contribution of liposuction to this treatment
