Thermal injury to the anterior chest in the adolescent girl can lead to severe disfigurement of the breasts. Just as in certain non-burn female patients, mammary hyperplasia can occur in patients with previous full-thickness burns of their breasts. Most plastic surgeons have been reluctant to perform reduction mammaplasty in these patients for fear of devascularizing the skin graft or the nipple-areola complex. A series of six patients with full-thickness burns of the breasts and subsequent skin graft coverage before reduction mammaplasty is reported. Four patients had bilaterally burned breasts requiring reduction. Two patients had one burned breast reduced, and one required a balancing procedure on the unburned side. Reduction mammaplasty was performed using the inferior-pedicle technique. The mean amount of tissue removed for the left and right breasts was 454 and 395 g, respectively. There was no nipple loss, hematoma, infection, or major loss of skin flaps. Reduction mammaplasty in this group of patients is safe and carries minimal risk if certain key concepts are followed carefully.
