title: Minimal invasive surgery for gynecomastia - A novel approach.
abstract: During the past three decades, there has been a gradual evolution toward less invasive surgery. In breast surgery, the introduction of vacuum-assisted biopsy devices with larger bore cannulae has extended their role to include a therapeutic as well as a diagnostic function. The present article focuses on the innovative use of vacuum-assisted biopsy devices in the treatment of male mammary hypertrophy.
