Article Synopsis
- An effective preoperative assessment for breast reduction surgery involves accurately locating the nipple-areola complex to ensure proper placement in the new breast structure, as correcting incorrect positioning is challenging.
- Traditional methods for nipple localization rely on subjective techniques that may lead to errors, particularly in larger breasts, creating a need for a more accurate approach.
- The proposed method utilizes geometric principles, placing the nipple at the lower angles of a triangle based on measurements from the sternal angle, resulting in successful placements across 40 patients and enhancing the accuracy and confidence of trainee surgeons.
A case is presented where the common insertion of the upper and lower canaliculus of the lacrimal sac was repaired using endoscopic dacrocystorhinostomy (DCR) techniques, with silicone stenting and securing of stents intranasally.
