Abstract
Management of the tuberous breast represents one of the greatest surgical challenges in aesthetic breast surgery, requiring careful assessment and a methodical approach to obtain an acceptable result. The surgeon must be familiar with multiple techniques that can be performed individually or may be combined to address various aspects of the tuberous deformity. This article describes the etiology, anatomic features, identification, and classification of the tuberous breast, focusing on surgical management and potential pitfalls. Through case study, expected outcomes in the management of this complex problem are described.Entities:
