A boon for patients with gynecomastia – breast lumpectomy “I can go swimming again.” A boy’s happy voice came from the ward, and a long-lost bright smile appeared on the boy’s face. The boy, who is in high school this year, is a male with gynecomastia and has just recently undergone a breast lumpectomy at Shanghai Tongji Hospital. Both the boy and his parents were very happy to see that the developing gland had been removed and that there was no incision scar on his chest. The story started 2 years ago when his parents noticed that their sunny boy had been sulking recently. Upon asking, they found out that the boy’s breasts had started to grow gradually and he was teased by his classmates. Knowing these circumstances, parents are very anxious, take the child around to seek medical advice, the doctor’s opinion is to surgery, but after surgery in front of the bilateral chest will leave incision scar, affecting the aesthetic. The boy was so handsome, the parents certainly did not want the child to leave ugly incision scar, but without surgery and can not treat the disease, how to do, the parents were very torn. By chance, a colleague told the parents that there was a new technology in the nail and breast surgery department of Shanghai Tongji Hospital, which could treat gynecomastia through three small holes without an incision, and there would be no incision scar on the front chest wall after the surgery. With the last ray of hope, the parents took the boy to the expert clinic of Zhang Tao, director of nail and breast surgery at Shanghai Tongji Hospital, to understand the condition, Zhang Tao, director of this new technology is breast lumpectomy, we all know that removal of the gallbladder can be done laparoscopically, after surgery there are only 1-3 small holes in the abdominal wall, now breast surgery can also be done through the lumpectomy, that is, breast lumpectomy, to avoid the traditional surgery in the anterior chest wall left Nowadays, breast surgery can also be done through lumpectomy, i.e. breast lumpectomy, which avoids the long incision scar left by traditional surgery on the anterior chest wall, and only has 3 small holes on the lateral chest wall. For male mastopathy patients, we have abandoned the traditional open surgery method, and now it is done through breast lumpectomy, compared with traditional surgery, this surgery is less traumatic, fast recovery, because the lumpectomy can penetrate into all parts, and there is a magnification effect, so breast lumpectomy is more thorough than traditional surgery, there will be no residual development of the gland, and most importantly, the aesthetic degree after breast lumpectomy is significantly better than The most important thing is that the aesthetics after mammography is significantly better than traditional surgery, from the front you can’t even see the traces of the surgery, it’s as if no surgery has been done. After listening to Zhang Tao’s explanation, the child’s parents felt much better and immediately decided to do the lumpectomy, which went well.
