  • Breast Disorders in Girls and Adolescents. Is There a Need for a Specialized Service?
    Original Study Breast Disorders in Girls and Adolescents. Is There a Need for a Specialized Service? Lina Michala MRCOG, PhD *, Alexandra Tsigginou MD, PhD, Dimitris Zacharakis MD, Constantine Dimitrakakis MD, PhD 1stDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Athens, Alexandra Hospital, Athens, Greece abstract Introduction: Minor breast concerns in childhood and adolescence are common and lead to increased anxiety among young patients and their families, particularly due to high correlation with breast cancer. However, most breast services aim at managing adults and triaging patients with breast cancer, whereas adolescent medicine specialists or pediatricians are usually not appropriately trained to identify and treat breast pathology. Methods: We reviewed hospital records of all patients attending a pediatric and adolescent gynecology or breast clinic of a tertiary referral hospital, with a breast related symptom, between January 2009 and December 2011. We collected information regarding age at presen- tation, age at menarche, diagnosis, management and outcome. Results: We identified 81 patients of which 11 presented with an abnormal nipple or areolar secretion, 33 had a palpable lump, 20 had mastitis, and 16 had unequal breast development. One patient presented with virginal breast hypertrophy. Three out of 11 of the patients with an abnormal secretion had a cyst identified on ultrasonography. Out of the palpable lumps 12 were fibroadenomas, 3 were phyllodes tumors, and 14 were cystic in nature. The phyllodes tumors and half of the fibroadenomas were removed. The remaining fibroadenomas remain under regular ultrasonographic follow-up. All cases of mastitis were treated conservatively and resolved with broad spectrum antibiotic treatment. Conclusion: In our series, no malignancies were identified.

  • Gynaecomastia
    GYNAECOMASTIA Mrs. Preethi Ramesh Senior Nursing Lecturer BGI DEFINITION Gynecomastia: It is a common endocrine disorder in which there is a benign enlargement of breast tissue in males. Pseudogynecomastia: Enlargement of the male breast, as a result of increased fat deposition is called Pseudogynecomastia. Synonymous terms are used like Adipomastia, or lipomastia. GYNECOMASTIA & PSEUDOGYNECOMASTIA PREVALENCE Asymptomatic palpable breast tissue is common in normal males, particularly in the neonate(60%–90%), at puberty (60%–70%), and with increasing age (20%–65%, >50 years). Because of this high prevalence, gynecomastia is considered a relatively normal finding during these periods of life. Gynecomastia is often called physiologic at these ages. CLASSIFICATION SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS Male breast enlargement with rubbery or firm glandular subcutaneous chest tissue palpated under the areola of the nipple in contrast to softer fatty tissue. Milky discharge from the nipple is not a typical finding but may be seen in a gynecomastia individual with a prolactin secreting tumor. The enlargement may occur on one side or both. Males with gynecomastia may appear anxious or stressed due to concerns about the possibility of having breast cancer. An increase in the diameter of the areola and asymmetry of the chest tissue. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY An altered ratio of estrogens to androgens mediated by an increase in estrogen production. An altered ratio of estrogens to androgens mediated by a decrease in androgen production. An altered ratio of estrogens to androgens mediated by a combination of these two factors. Estrogen acts as a growth hormone to increase the size of male breast tissue. The cause of gynecomastia is unknown in around 25% of cases.

    Hormones and Behavior 64 (2013) 250–261 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Hormones and Behavior journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/yhbeh Review Influences on the onset and tempo of puberty in human beings and implications for adolescent psychological development Yvonne Lee ⁎, Dennis Styne University of California Davis Medical Center, 2516 Stockton Boulevard, Ticon II, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA article info abstract Keywords: This article is part of a Special Issue “Puberty and Adolescence”. Secular trends in puberty Influences on temp of puberty Historical records reveal a secular trend toward earlier onset of puberty in both males and females, often attrib- Endocrine disrupting chemicals uted to improvements in nutrition and health status. The trend stabilized during the mid 20th century in many countries, but recent studies describe a recurrence of a decrease in age of pubertal onset. There appears to be an associated change in pubertal tempo in girls, such that girls who enter puberty earlier have a longer duration of puberty. Puberty is influenced by genetic factors but since these effects cannot change dramatically over the past century, environmental effects, including endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), and perinatal conditions offer alternative etiologies. Observations that the secular trends in puberty in girls parallel the obesity epidemic provide another plausible explanation. Early puberty has implications for poor behavioral and psychosocial out- comes as well as health later in life. Irrespective of the underlying cause of the ongoing trend toward early puber- ty, experts in the field have debated whether these trends should lead clinicians to reconsider a lower age of normal puberty, or whether such a new definition will mask a pathologic etiology.

  • Efficiency of Imaging Modalities in Male Breast Disease: Can Ultrasound Give Additional Information for Assessment of Gynecomastia Evolution?
    Original Article Eur J Breast Health 2018; 14: 29-34 DOI: 10.5152/ejbh.2017.3416 Efficiency of Imaging Modalities in Male Breast Disease: Can Ultrasound Give Additional Information for Assessment of Gynecomastia Evolution? Özgür Sarıca1 , A. Nedim Kahraman2 , Enis Öztürk3 , Memik Teke1 1Department of Radiology, Taksim Gaziosmanpaşa Training and Research Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey 2Department of Radiology, Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey 3Department of Radiology, Bakırköy Training and Research Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of this study is to present mammography and ultrasound findings of male breast lesions and to investigate the ability of diagnostic modalities in estimating the evolution of gynecomastia. Materials and Methods: Sixty-nine male patients who admitted to Taksim and Bakirkoy Education and Research Hospitals and underwent mam- mography (MG) and ultrasonography (US) imaging were retrospectively evaluated. Duration of symptoms and mammographic types of gynecomas- tia according to Appelbaum's classifications were evaluated, besides the sonographic findings in mammographic types of gynecomastia. Results: The distribution of 69 cases were as follows: gynecomastia 47 (68.11%), pseudogynecomastia 6 (8.69%) primary breast carcinoma 7 (10.14%), metastatic carcinoma 1 (1.4%), epidermal inclusion cyst 2 (2.8%), abscess 2 (2.8%), lipoma 2 (2.8%), pyogenic granuloma 1 (1.4%), and granulomatous lobular mastitis 1 (1.4%). Gynecomastia patients who had symptoms less than 1 year had nodular gynecomastia (34.6%) as opposed to dendritic gynecomastia (61.5%) (p<0.01) based on mammography results according to Appelbaum's classifications. In patients having symptoms for 1 to 2 years, diffuse gynecomastia (70%) had a higher rate than the dendritic type (20%).

  • Scaffold in the Ptotic Breast: a Multicenter [email protected] DOI: 10.1093/Asj/Sjy022 Clinical Study
    Breast Surgery Aesthetic Surgery Journal 2018, Vol 38(5) 502–518 The Use of Poly-4-Hydroxybutyrate (P4HB) © 2018 The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Inc. Reprints and permission: Scaffold in the Ptotic Breast: A Multicenter [email protected] DOI: 10.1093/asj/sjy022 Clinical Study www.aestheticsurgeryjournal.com William P. Adams, Jr, MD; Richard Baxter, MD; Caroline Glicksman, MD; Bruce A. Mast, MD; Michael Tantillo, MD; and Bruce W. Van Natta, MD Abstract Background: Mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty are often limited by the patient’s poor native soft tissue quality, resulting in ptosis recurrence and loss of rejuvenated surgical results. Surgical scaffolds and acellular dermal matrices are used in these procedures to provide physical and mechanical stabilization of weakened or compromised tissue. GalaFLEX scaffold, made from poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB), is a next-generation product for soft tissue reinforcement that resorbs gradually while aiding tissue regeneration to achieve excellent outcomes. Objectives: To assess the clinical performance of GalaFLEX scaffold in soft tissue reinforcement during elective mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty. Methods: This multicenter, single-arm, observational study assessed product performance and outcomes of GalaFLEX scaffold when used in breast surgery. Outcomes included ptosis correction and maintenance, associated adverse events, patient and surgeon satisfaction, and mammographic and ultrasound imaging evaluation. Results: At 6 centers in the US, 62 of 69 enrolled patients were treated. Of this population, 89.7% had successful ptosis correction and maintenance at 1 year, with high patient and surgeon satisfaction for breast shape, droop/sag of the breast, and maintenance of results at 1 year.

  • FACULTY of NURSING Chapter-07
    FACULTY OF NURSING Chapter-07 Gynecomastia Mr. SHAHANWAZ KHAN LECTURER (MSN) Definition Gynecomastia is benign enlargement of the male breast caused by proliferation of glandular breast tissue. Pseudogynecomastia: Enlargement of the male breast, as a result of increased fat deposition is called Pseudogynecomastia. synonymous terms are used like Adipomastia, or lipomastia. Pathophysiology Gynecomastia results from an imbalance between the stimulatory effect of estrogen on ductal proliferation and the inhibitory effect of androgen on breast development. The imbalance is most commonly caused by increased production of estrogens, decreased production of testosterone, or increased conversion of androgens to estrogens in peripheral tissue. Disorders of sex hormone–binding globulin or with androgen receptor binding and function can also result in gynecomastia. Hormonal influences on Gynecomastia: Source: Clinical Endocrinology and Diabetes at a Glance, First Edition Clinical manifestation Gynecomastia usually manifests as a palpable, discrete button of tissue radiating from beneath the nipple and areola. Gynecomastia feels “gritty” when the breast is pinched between the thumb and forefinger. Fatty tissue (Pseudogynecomastia), unlike gynecomastia, will not cause resistance until the nipple is reached. (Difference in clinical examination). Examination Findings: The examination is performed by having the patient lie on his back with his hands behind his head. The examiner then places his or her thumb and forefinger on each side of the breast and slowly brings them together Gynecomastia is appreciated as a concentric, rubbery-to-firm disk of tissue, often mobile, located directly beneath the areolar area. Pseudogynecomastia presents no discrete mass, Other masses due to disorders such as cancer tend to be eccentrically positioned (insert) Source: uptodate.com Prevalence Asymptomatic palpable breast tissue is common in normal males, particularly in the neonate(60%– 90%), at puberty (60%–70%), and with increasing age (20%–65%, >50 years).
