Inverted nipple: the new method of correction.
A new technique for correcting inverted nipples is described. It consists of the sectioning of the only genetic factor--the resistance of the collagen fibers--by undermining, under the control of a palper. The trophicity of the nipple is assured by a circular "umbrella" musculocutaneous flap containing the superficial vascular system. A subdermal cutaneous notch "blocks" the nipple and prevents any recurrence.
