BACKGROUND: A growing number of transgender women present to plastic surgeons seeking breast augmentation. Despite some advocating their technical similarity, the authors have found substantially different planning and techniques are needed to obtain aesthetic results in transgender patients versus cosmetic breast augmentation. The authors sought to develop an approach for operative planning and technique to elucidate these differences and obtain consistent results. METHODS: All patients who underwent breast augmentation at the Johns Hopkins Center for Transgender Health were included in this study. Anthropometric assessments were obtained and comparative statistics between operative and nonoperative cohorts were calculated. Outcomes were analyzed and a patient-reported survey was performed to evaluate patient satisfaction. RESULTS: Fifty-nine consecutive transfemale patients presented for evaluation. Anthropometric measurements included base width (median, 15.0 ± 2.1 cm), notch-to-nipple distance (median, 22.0 cm), nipple-to-midline distance (median, 12.0 cm), areolar diameter (median, 3.5 ± 1.5 cm), and upper pole pinch (mean, 1.8 ± 1.1 cm). Thirty-six patients underwent augmentation mammaplasty. Postoperative complications (8.3 percent) included a minor hematoma and grade III capsular contracture in two patients. Patients were asked to complete a brief outcomes survey and reported an improvement in psychosocial well-being and high satisfaction rate (100 percent) with the overall cosmetic result. CONCLUSIONS: Transgender female patients represent a unique patient population requiring special consideration of anatomical differences in key planning decisions. The authors delineate the first systematic algorithm that addresses these differences, emphasizing maneuvers such as routine inframammary fold lowering. This can allow experienced augmentation surgeons to obtain excellent aesthetic and patient-reported outcomes in this population. As with cosmetic breast augmentation, patient satisfaction rates are high. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, IV.
背景:寻求乳房增大的跨性别女性数量不断增加。尽管一些人提倡他们的技术相似,但作者发现,为了在跨性别患者中获得美学效果,需要使用完全不同的规划和技术,而不是美容乳房增大。作者试图开发一种手术规划和技术方法,以阐明这些差异并获得一致的结果。
方法:所有在约翰霍普金斯跨性别健康中心接受乳房增大的患者均纳入本研究。进行了人体测量评估,并计算了手术组和非手术组之间的比较统计数据。分析了结果,并进行了患者报告调查以评估患者满意度。
结果:59 例连续的跨性别女性患者接受了评估。人体测量测量包括基底宽度(中位数,15.0 ± 2.1cm),乳头到肩峰的距离(中位数,22.0cm),乳头到中线的距离(中位数,12.0cm),乳晕直径(中位数,3.5 ± 1.5cm)和上极捏合(平均值,1.8 ± 1.1cm)。36 例患者接受了乳房增大成形术。术后并发症(8.3%)包括两名患者出现轻度血肿和 III 级包膜挛缩。患者被要求完成简短的结果调查,并报告在社会心理幸福感方面有改善,并且对整体美容效果的满意度很高(100%)。
结论:跨性别女性患者代表了一个独特的患者群体,需要特别考虑关键规划决策中的解剖学差异。作者详细描述了第一个系统算法,该算法解决了这些差异,强调了常规下皱襞降低等操作。这可以使有经验的乳房增大外科医生在该人群中获得出色的美学和患者报告的结果。与美容乳房增大一样,患者满意度很高。
