摘要
A retrospective analysis of pathological findings in 157 female patients undergoing breast reduction is presented. In 33 months 295 breasts were reduced. 25.6% of these patients had an abnormal pathology report, but no cases of premalignant disease or breast cancer were found. A postal questionnaire sent to consultant members of the British Association of Plastic Surgeons in 1994 found 89% routinely sent breast reduction tissue for pathological study. 42% had seen at least one case of breast cancer reported from this tissue. Recommendations for the use of pathology in breast reduction surgery are proposed.
