Abstract

Experinece with bilateral reduction mammaplasty in 213 patients has been reviewed. Complications, while not infrequent, are rarely of a serious or lasting nature. In the experience of the authors, the McKissock procedure has yielded the most consistently good results, although very good results were occasionally achieved with all of the other techniques employed.
