“…Interestingly, in human medicine literature, intra‐operative hypotension has been shown to significantly affect post‐operative complications with an increase in the development of wound haematomas following surgery, specifically following breast reduction surgery (Hussien et al . 2001). Patients who experienced intra‐operative hypotension during the middle phase of surgery (where haemostasis is usually required due to resection and reconstruction at this phase) had a higher risk of developing wound haematomas, requiring subsequent drainage post‐operatively.…”

“…The reason for this finding is unclear. Previous studies demonstrated an association between hypotension during anesthesia and an increased number of hematomas requiring hematoma evacuation (23, 24). Due to the retrospective nature of this study, these data were not collected.…”

“…[23,24] In the literature, the overall breast reduction complication rate has been reported to be higher, especially in those with resected breast tissue of more than 1000 g. [6,25] Among these, in the study in which Hussien et al [6] examined the effects of intraoperative hypotension on the development of scar-site hematoma following breast reduction, the total amount of resected breast tissue was higher than 1000 g (1215.4 vs 1104.0 g), despite not being statistically significant, in the group with hematoma development during the postoperative period (6). In our study, although the total amounts of resected breast tissue were much higher (2187.04 vs 1939.8 g), no hematoma was observed in the postoperative period.…”

“…[4] There are a limited number of studies in the literature regarding the use of the controlled hypotension method in breast reduction operations where excessive bleeding is expected (mean 700 to 800 mL). [1,5,6] …”
