Gynecomastia is a condition commonly associated with puberty. An endoscope-assisted transaxillary procedure was used to treat a patient with this condition. An endoscope system was inserted into a 4-cm skin incision in the axilla, and the glands and adjacent fat were removed en bloc. The resulting scar in the axilla was small and inconspicuous, and the postoperative breast contour satisfied the patient. The endoscopic system provided a useful transaxillary approach. These results show that this method appears to be the most suitable one for surgical management of gynecomastia.
男性乳腺增生是一种通常与青春期相关的病症。采用了一种内镜辅助经腋窝手术来治疗一名患有该病症的患者。将一个内镜系统插入腋窝处一个4厘米的皮肤切口,然后将腺体及相邻脂肪整块切除。腋窝处形成的疤痕小且不明显,术后乳房外形让患者满意。该内镜系统提供了一种有用的经腋窝入路。这些结果表明,这种方法似乎是男性乳腺增生手术治疗的最合适方法。
