[Mammographic findings following reduction mammaplasty].
Clinical and mammographic follow-up checks were made on 64 women with a record of breast reduction surgery. Mammographic changes, such as thickened skin, distortion of nipples as well as thickening and dislocation of parenchymal tissue, can be relatively easily differentiated from malignant changes, primarily in cases in which such changes are symmetrical and in which case histories and earlier clinical findings are known. Bilateral calcifications in most cases are caused by calcified fat necrosis.
