title: [Late results of shape-improving and shape-preserving mammaplasties: indication and selection of procedure (author's transl)].
abstract: Results of shape-improving and shape-preserving operations to a woman's breast and the quality of the operation method cannot be assessed until a number of years later. Subsequent processes entailing alteration in the structure of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, gliding down of gland tissue to Mm. pectoralis, broadening of vertical scars, and complications to the remaining gland tissue may basically vary the results obtained. Late results and view points leading to the selection of procedure will be discussed and compared with those in the literature.
