We have defined a group of patients with a lesser degree of moderate breast ptosis whose ptosis correction is not adequately improved by augmentation alone but requires some elevation of the nipple-areola complex. We have selected the crescent excision mastopexy to provide this additional needed lift. Experience with 26 patients employing this technique has helped to define the indications and limitations for this approach. It seems to adequately provide the additional needed lift when nipple descent has been no more than 1.5 to 2 cm below the inframammary crease. Complications such as scar widening (46 percent) were reviewed, but seemed to be well tolerated by the patients.
我们定义了一组中度乳房下垂程度较轻的患者，对于他们而言，单纯隆乳并不能充分改善下垂情况，还需要对乳头乳晕复合体进行一定程度的上提。我们选择采用新月形切除乳房上提术来提供这种额外所需的上提效果。对26例采用该技术的患者的经验有助于明确该方法的适应症和局限性。当乳头下移不超过乳房下皱襞以下1.5至2厘米时，该方法似乎能充分提供额外所需的上提效果。我们对诸如瘢痕增宽（46%）等并发症进行了评估，但患者似乎对这些并发症耐受性良好。
