“…He was on a normocaloric diet with normal protein intake and no special sport food supplementation (being in a resting period) at the time of the trauma and also during the 2 months preceding it. The clinical case presented in this report has been clinically solved by a well-known surgical approach [17,18], but the exact etiology and mechanism of the new onset of previously existing stable gynecomastia remains unclear to us. However, we are convinced that the pathophysiology of this phenomenon could be related to the trauma he suffered 4 weeks before the new onset of the left breast enlargement.…”

Gynecomastia is a benign enlargement of the male breast which can be a source of significant anxiety and embarrassment for the patients. A great variety of etiologic factors have been investigated and discussed. However, only few studies in the literature have accentuated on the possible role of the chronic tissue trauma for the de novo development of gynecomastia. Nevertheless, the exact mechanism of its onset in such cases remains unclear. The authors report on a case of posttraumatic unilateral progression of preexisting stable gynecomastia. The possible role of a single episode of acute trauma as a trigger mechanism for the new onset of the breast enlargement is discussed. Level of Evidence: Level V, risk/prognostic study.

Background: Gynecomastia is the most common breast disorder in men. The usual treatment of grade III is surgical excision of the excess skin which may cause embarrassment and dissatisfying results. Objective: To evaluate skin redraping after traditional liposuction in management of grade III gynecomastia Simon`s classification. Patients and Methods: In this study, 20 patients with grade III gynecomastia were selected with age group between 18 and 40 years old with mean 28.25 ± 4.18, 18 patients were idiopathic while 2 patients were drug induced, 19 cases were bilateral and one case were unilateral. It was a prospective observational cohort study to assess the effectiveness traditional liposuction for correction of grade III gynecomastia with excision of the gland through a semicircular infraareolar incision when needed, 11 cases underwent surgical gland excision while 9 cases didn"t need to. The study was conducted at Al-Azhar university hospitals (Al-Hussien and Sayed Galal). Results: Age group ranged from 18 to 40 with a mean on 28.25 ±4.18. The subjective results for all patients at 3 months assessment point. Four patients scored very satisfied, eight stated satisfied, another four stated neither satisfied nor dissatisfied while three patients declared dissatisfaction and only one was very dissatisfied. The average sternal notch to nipple length pre and three months postoperative were respectively 27cm and 22cm. Many factors have contributed in our success rate; the selection of young nonsmoker patient with no co morbid diseases or evidence of defective elasticity (varicosities or hernias), the adequate preparation, amount and duration of the tumescent and the proper choice of the corset size and fiber as well as wearing it for the whole time of the study (3 months). The semicircular periareolar incision scars are not well defined as it become camouflaged by the color change between normal skin areola. Conclusion:Conventional liposuction alone could be a reliable method to treat grade III gynecomastia in young patient with a good skin quality and helps in avoidance of undesirable scars.
