title: Our experience with the technique of areolar rotation in reduction mammaplasty.
abstract: In the article, the authors present a relatively uncommon method employed for breast reduction and moulding in gigantomastia. They examine the benefits of the surgical technique based on areolar rotation with a wide superior-lateral dermal areolar flap. The authors point out the fact that postoperative blood supply to the areolas is very good while their sensitivity is preserved.
