Filter by:This is a prospective, multi-center, single-blinded, randomized study of up to 10 study subjects undergoing bilateral gynecomastia surgery with Renuvion APR System used as an adjunct procedure on one side. The study was conducted at a single investigational center in the United States.
The growing increase in the number of gynecomastia surgeries has resulted in an increased need for anesthetic techniques with improved pain reduction, safety, and fewer complications. The aim of this work is to compare the efficacy of ultrasound guided thoracic interfascial plane block and ultrasound guided thoracic paravertebral block for anesthesia in gynecomastia surgery.
Pain of breast surgery is due to chest wall scar and arm in some cases like carcinoma or due to nerve injury.It is neuropathic or nociceptive pain.Its severity is depending on the extent of surgery and the radiotherapy if needed. Previous studies proved that local nerve block procedures improved the immediate postoperative pain and decreased the incidence of postoperative pain chronicity . Also effective control of pain suppresses the surgical stress response minimizes the anaesthestic needs intraoperatively and decreases the opioid needs postoperatively . Pectoralis nerve(pecs) II block and erector spinae plane (ESP) block are novel procedures that may provide good intraoperative and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing surgical treatment of gynecomastia.
The study included 150 patients with gynecomastia (Grade II and III) for the period between January 2010 and January 2016 who attended private hospitals and Al- Kindy Teaching Hospital. The patients were divided into two groups according to the operative techniques used. Group A included 75 patients treated surgically with subcutaneous mastectomy using periareolar incision. Group B; included the other 75 patients who were managed by "modified Benelli technique". The subcutaneous mastectomy using "modified Benelli technique" showed a significantly lower operating time due to ample access for excision of breast tissue. Excision of excess skin allowed the areola to retain a cosmetically more acceptable position. There was a lot of pleating of the skin compared to the other technique using the periareolar incision.
The massive weight loss leads an important excess of skin on thoracic level giving the aspect of a feminine breast with a relatively important ptose. Several techniques were described in the literature about gynaecomastia , but the post-bariatric pseudo-gynaecomastia was not handled yet enough. Moreover, there is no single consensual technique on this subject. The technique used in this service was described for the first time in 2008 ( 1 ) on a serie of 8 patients with an average follow-up of 13 months. Although the results are promising, no other publication was done, and the procedure remains badly represented in the world literature.
This study looks at the relationship in the dose of nolvadex and the incidence of gynaecomastia and also Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) inhibition when co-administered with Casodex. The aim of the study is to assess the optimal dose of nolvadex which will reduce the breast tissue adverse effects without reducing the efficacy of Casodex.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effect of anastrozole (ZD1033, Arimidex™) in reducing gynecomastia in pubertal boys treated with placebo in Trial 1033US/0006 (another anastrozole study).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anastrozole (ARIMIDEX™) in the treatment of boys with gynecomastia.
The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy of different dosing and scheduling of Nolvadex in preventing gynecomastia/mastalgia induced by Casodex 150 mg monotherapy in patients with prostate cancer.
