Introduction<br />

There are a lot of surgical techniques that describe correction of the ptotic<br />

breasts. Vertical mammoplasty gives a good approach and good aesthetic<br />

results, without horizontal scars, good neurovascular supply to the nipple<br />

areola complex and a good shape of the breast.<br />

Material and methods<br />

We have had 4 women in this last year on the age of 26-55 years. Four<br />

vertical mastopexy according to Lajoure technique were performed.<br />

Preoperative we did the markings on the skin on the breasts, then during<br />

the operation we did the deepithelisation and mastopexy with the suture to<br />

the thoracic wall and then with a few sutures we made the shape of the<br />

breasts. We use drainage for 5 days.<br />

Results<br />

We have had satisfactory results for both patients and the operating team.<br />

We took out the stitches (5-0, 3-0 Nylon, Prolen) 10-15 postoperative day.<br />

We had one seroma, that healed spontaneously. The shape of the breasts is<br />

projection and with time the scars are minimal visible.<br />

Conclusion<br />

Vertical mammoplasty is a good solution for ptotic breasts with good<br />

sensibility of the nipple areola complex, minimal scars (without horizontal<br />

scars), good shape and projection of the breasts. Vertical mammoplasty is a<br />

technique that could always be our choice.<br />
