[Third operation for breast hypertrophy].
The authors report an original technique for correction of synmastia with loss of the intermammary sulcus during a third revision for mammary hypertrophy. The technique consists of an intermammary incision with revision of the previous scars and dissection of the entire thoracic cutaneo-glandular tissue. The creation of the new intermammary sulcus is achieved by defatting a presternal "gutter" and fixation of the skin by sutures trans-fixing the sternum and tied over a pad.
