Mastopexy, or breast lift surgery, addresses breast ptosis or sagging through surgical techniques to reshape and lift the breasts. The document discusses various mastopexy techniques including periareolar, vertical scar, and Benelli mastopexy. It also covers patient evaluation and classifications of breast ptosis. The goals of mastopexy are to restore a youthful breast shape while minimizing scarring and recurrence of ptosis over time.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
2. Mastopexy
• Lay public; breast lift
• Ptosis (Greek; falling)
• Confusion; reduction or mastopexy?
• Reshaping the breast with or without
parenchymal reduction(Peter C.Neligan)
• Lifting and reshaping breast by redistributing
tissue without reducing volume (Grabb &
Smith’s)
10. Goals
• Restoring youthful firm breast
• Correction of ptosis
• Minimize scarring
• Slow down recurrence/longevity of procedure
• Reshaping/redistributing parenchyma
• Tightening ptotic skin envelope
• Maintaining nipple areola vascularity
11. History
• Dartiques: minimizing cutaneous incision
• Lösch: circumareolar incision to vertical scar
• Claude Lassus: classic vertical scar technique
• Lejour: adjunctive suction assisted lipectomy
• Hall-Findlay: medial NAC pedicle, no SAL, no undermining of flaps, Laterally based
pedicle
• Wise: wise pattern reduction mammoplasty, inverted T scar with periareolar
incision
• Góes: use of mesh
• Graf and Biggs: adding autologous tissue flap in loop of pectoralis major muscle
12. Tuberous breast deformity
• Tubular/constricted
• High IMF, hypoplastic lower
pole, NAC inferior most
aspect
• Herniation of NAC
• Unilateral or bilateral(same
or varying degrees)
• Classification by Grolleau &
Von Heimburg
13.
14. Patient evaluation/selection
• Patient education
• Predetermined notions and patient’s expectation with
regard to the final results, and misunderstandings
resolved
• Techniques with their rationale explained
– Special discussion about incision pattern and expected
scars, weighing risks over benefits
• Informed consent (including risks, benefits and
alternative to proposed technique)
• Preop. planning/measurements
• Preop. imaging (digital photography, 3D imaging,
computerized image-enhancing softwares)
15. Points not to be missed in history and
examination
• Age
• Cardiopulmonary status
• Already taking medications or change of
medication
• Previous stroke
• Renal or hepatic insufficiency
• Coagulation profile
• Previous surgery (chest wall or breast)
• Any weight loss
• Possibility of pregnancy
16. AGAIN, very important !!!
• Expectations of patient regarding:
– shape, scar pattern and length
– Amount of skin excised
– Modification of breast size
17. Points not to be missed in history and
examination
• Breast History:
• Any recent breast, nipple changes, any discharge
• Previous mass or previous surgery
• Previous scars
• Previous biopsy or mammography
• Radiation therapy
• Family history of breast cancer
• Recommend “mammography” in all above 35
years of age
18. Points not to be missed in history and
examination
• Breast size, volume and shape
• Quality and excess of skin envelope
• Nipple position
• Areola size
• Asymmetry
– (notch to nipple distance and sternum to nipple distance)
• Degree of ptosis
• General physical and systemic examination
19. Measurements
• Distance from suprasternal notch to nipple
• Nipple to IMF distance
• Breast base width/diameter( on chest wall)
• IMF length

24. Periareolar Benelli mastopexy
• Mastopexy with reduction
• Skin and gland both treated
• Simple gland folding and plication or creating Superior , medial, lateral
dermoglandular flaps
• inverted T type of incision through the gland
• Cerclage stitch as in donut mastopexy
• Minimum glandular tissue-- implant
• AIM: Reducing the breast width, tightening the lower pole, and
coning the breast construct by crisscrossing the medial and lateral
dermoglandular flaps
• Useful in very large breast and high degree of ptosis with minimum
scarring
• not recommended for breasts ,mainly fat or have a large amount of
skin excess(poor quality)
• Advantages: minimize scar and recontour and reshape the gland
• Disadvantage: widened scar, flattened breast

29. Góes periareolar technique with
mesh support
• “double skin” technique
• Pectoral fascia, intramammary connective tissue ligaments, periareolar
dermal flap (used as internal skin lining), an absorbable mixed mesh, and
the external skin lining
• mesh causes a fibrotic reaction that serves to support the breast for a
longer time during the healing and cicatrization process
• Mesh:
– absorbable(mixed mesh; polyglactin mesh with Dacron filaments or woven
mesh; polyglactin/polypropylene)
– integrated(biological)
• Disadvantages:
• technical difficulty
• mesh-related complications, such as infection, palpability, retraction, skin
necrosis, or extrusion
30. Four cardinal points of Góes mammoplasty

33. 2.Vertical/short scar technique
• Lassus vertical scar technique
• reduction and mastopexy
• 4 principals:
– central wedge resection
– transposition of the areola on a superiorly-based flap
– no undermining of the skin
– addition of a vertical scar component
• Indications:
• Firm gland, good skin quality, young patients, not very large or ptotic breasts
• If NAC elevation >10 cm needed; medial or lateral flap by Skoog
• Advantages:
• Central wedge excision; avoids injury to vascular supply
• No undermining of skin from gland or gland from muscle; no glandular or skin necrosis
• Avoids necrosis of nipple areola or loss of their sensation
• Disadvantage:
• Visible vertical scar
• Final result and shape takes months(2- 2.5months)
• Technical difficulty
34. Vertical/short scar technique
• Lejour vertical scar technique:
• Lejour’s modifications of lassus
• Shortening scar, using superior pedicle following three principles:
– wide lower pole skin undermining
– Overcorrection of the deformity
– Liposuction
• used either as a reduction technique or as a mastopexy
• Advantages:
• Postoperative stability
• No scar widening
• Preservation of nipple sensitivity
• Liposuction reduces volume and recontours the shape as needed without
damaging important structures
• Disadvantage:
• Late results
• some skin redundancy remains (necessitates excision)
35. • Hall-Findlay’s vertical technique:
– Wise pattern vertical technique without lateral
and medial extensions
• Hammond SPAIR technique:
– Short scar periareolar inferior pedicle reduction
mammoplasty
– Inferiorly based pedicle
37. Notch to new areolar distance is approximately 20-23cm.
From top of vertical closure,5-6 cm down a point is marked for future IMF.
Preaxillary fullness and lateral chest rolls: liposuction for the contour
38. • the bottom of the incision line coming to a V approximately 2 cm above the inframammary
fold (point B). The hatched lines show the location of the glandular resection at the bases of
the medial and lateral pillars.
• A superiorly-based flap can be created from the tissues between the marked medial and
lateral pillars, rotated retro-areolarly, and then sutured to the pectoralis fascia to improve
upper pole fill.
39.
40. Rounded superior pole, flat lower pole, and
slightly downward pointing nipple.(upside down breast
shape)
lower pole of the breast detached.
The resulting flap transposed into the retro-areolar
location to augment the upper pole or resected
in cases such as a small reduction or when an implant is
to be added (addition-subtraction concept)
41. Final closure and tegaderm dressing(2 weeks) then advise a bra day and night for 6-8 weeks
42. Augmentation mastopexy
(Kent K. Higdon and James C. Grotting)
• Indications:
– Glandular deficiency irrespective of skin envelope
– After explantation with inadequate residual parenchyma
– Asymmetry (one breast is hypoplastic & other is ptotic)
• Advantages:
– Improved fill in superior and superomedial aspect
• Disadvantages:
– wound problems and dehiscence because of added weight of the
implant
– inherent risks of the implants (malpositioning, leakage, rupture,
capsular contracture)
• Addition subtraction principal
• implant ; subglandular or subpectoral position
– available parenchyma as determined by skin pinch thickness of >3 cm
• Autologous fat grafts in the upper pole (if not wanting an implant)
43.
44. Inverted T scar technique
• Indication:
– moderate to severe breast ptosis with a large excess of
skin and a moderate amount of glandular tissue.
• Advantages:
– ability to excise all excess skin
– Allows for final adjustments
– decreases the chance of subsequent revision
• Disadvantage:
– increased length of the incisions & scars
– high chances of recurrent ptosis
• (new breast mound has only skin envelope, no pillars or
interglandular sutures)
• MARKINGS;
– same as wise pattern vertical scar with horizontal
component
45.
46.
47. Postoperative care
• Prophylactic antibiotic (1st gen. cephalosporin;
cefazolin)
• Analgesics
• Antiemetics
• Tegaderm dressing with areolar window(@
weeks)
• Postoperative brassier (6-8 weeks)
• Drains; not necessary
• Mild activities; 2 weeks later
• Full exercise; 8 weeks later
48. Complications
• Nipple loss
• Sensory loss
• Flap necrosis
• Scar widening
• Nipple malposition
• Cosmetic disappointments
• Wound related complication
• Implant related complication
Editor's Notes
Falling or sagging of breast
Surfing internet, perusing before and after photos and discussing with experienced people, their image is out of line, or they have some analysis about position and shape plus NAC location and scar.
Glandular dissection(with semicircular incision 3cm from inferior alveolar margin)in central avascular space upto prepectoral fascia
Flaps are created and trimmed at distal ends to acquire a lifted volume, decrease base of breast
If gland needs no resection, plication invagination to attain conical shape
Mesh is not palpable, breast is firm for initial 2 months then regains it’s elasticity
Side marks, then breast tissue assembled to see if nipple elevated to supposed position. Medial and lateral lines drawn, joined by inferior curve which is 2-3 cm above IMF.
One option is to fold this flap and sutured to pectoral fascia above. Or if it is resected then tissue beneath NAC is sutured to pect fascia to give roundedness
Techniques which need wide undermining of skin flaps( Benelli and goes technique),subglandular augmentation may cause denervation and necrosis of NAC, breast gland and skin
