About

Gynecomastia is the benign proliferation of male breast tissue caused by an increase in the estrogen/androgen activity ratio. It manifests itself physiologically (adolescence, puberty, and old age) as well as pathologically (androgen insufficiency caused by drugs or disease, testicular tumors, hyperthyroidism, and chronic renal failure).

• In spite of the variety of methods and tools such as (liposuction and circumareolar inframammary inscion ) used in gynecomastia surgery, in gynecomastia the results are satisfactory in grades 1 and 2 while grades 3 and 4 gynecomastia present a surgical challenge.
