ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To introduce a new technique for reduction mammaplasty appropriate to moderate or heavy hypertrophic breast.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The superior-lateral dermo-glandular pedicle flap including the nipple-areola complex was created. After the extra glandular tissue was removed, the superior-lateral dermo-glandular pedicle with the nipple-areola complex was rotated, adjusted, sculptured and fixed to the thoracic wall so as to fashion a breast with natural projection and proper shape. This method was used in 4 patients(8 breasts).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The operation results were satisfactory without complications. The breasts maintained nice configuration and good function, with well lactating in one case.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The technique of reduction mammaplasty with the superior-lateral dermo-glandular pedicle is a reasonable method to obtain nice breast configuration and good function.</p>
