Abstract
Summary and Conclusion
The female breast has a diverse physiology that makes accurate
reproducible measurements of this organ very difficult. Physiological
changes as puberty, ovulation, gestation and lactation affect breast shape.
It is a three-dimensional soft tissue structure that is anchored to a bony
and muscular framework but does not remain constant over time.
Mugea, (2001) quoted that the aesthetically perfect breast was one
for which no common aesthetic procedures would be suggested. It is
perfectly fit with a perfect body, in perfect harmony regarding proportion,
position, and projection. This is the “top model” situation.
There has been variable techniques of breast augmentation
(periareolar, inframammary, transaxillary and transumbilical approaches)
currently fit the needs of the variously shaped patients in our population.
Although there is no one single technique that is considered “the best,”
one must take the options that are available in conjunction with the
physical examination of the patient to create a sound surgical plan for
achieving an aesthetic looking augmented breast (Spear et al., 2004).
We must always strive to create the breast that is appropriate for
the patient’s body shape. Therefore, it is important to do anthropomorphic
measurements on all women to see if we ultimately achieve our goals as
noted by Westreich, (2009).
Surgeons performing breast augmentation have to be well
informed, not only about the variety of techniques that are available but
also about the possible risks and complications of the procedure.
Shiffman (2009) monitored that the surgeon should be capable of
deciding which procedure to use to correct any defect or deformity and of
avoiding or treating the variety of possible complications of the
surgery,the patient should understand that the possibility exists for a
second or even third procedure on the breast after augmentation.
Maliniac, (1950) statement is as true today as it was: The
surgeon’s sense of sculptural form must dictate the ultimate decision as to
the placement and shape of the breasts.
