Treatment of pediatric breast problems.

Pediatric breast anomalies are relatively common. Treatment options depend on whether the abnormalities are hyperplastic, deformational, or hypoplastic. Hyperplastic anomalies require reduction techniques, whereas deformational and hypoplastic lesions require augmentation techniques and are more likely to require revisional surgeries. These designations aid the surgeon in decision-making about timing for treatment and in optimizing aesthetic outcomes.
