Due to its minimally invasive and highly precise nature, the mammotome, a vacuum-assisted breast biopsy device, has proven effective for the treatment of benign breast lesions. Taking advantage of both liposuction and the mammotome, we utilized the mammotome device for the excision of accessory breasts.
Between July 2010 and June 2014, 16 patients with accessory breasts received mammotome-assisted liposuction. After adipose was removed using this procedure, the mammotome system was used to excise the fibro-glandular tissue in accessory breasts under ultrasound monitoring.
All patients were satisfied with their appearance after surgery. A single 5-mm incision, which was well hidden in the axillary skin folds and allowed for restoration, provided an aesthetically pleasing contour to the axilla.
Mammotome-assisted liposuction is a new approach that can be used to excise both adipose and fibro-glandular breast tissue simultaneously with a minimal incision, and provides a favorable contour to the axilla.

由于具有微创和高精度的特点,麦默通(Mammotome)——一种真空辅助乳腺活检设备,已被证明对治疗良性乳腺病变有效。利用抽脂术和麦默通的优势,我们使用麦默通设备切除副乳。
2010年7月至2014年6月期间,16例副乳患者接受了麦默通辅助抽脂术。使用该方法去除脂肪后,在超声监测下,用麦默通系统切除副乳中的纤维腺组织。
所有患者术后对外观均满意。一个5毫米的切口隐藏在腋窝皮肤褶皱中,利于恢复,使腋窝外形美观。
麦默通辅助抽脂术是一种新方法,可通过最小切口同时切除乳腺的脂肪和纤维腺组织,并使腋窝外形良好。
